too bad you didn't need it sooner in the week, coast powertrain could have that done in a jiffy

i need to stop working on things on weekends when places are closed

turns out a driveshaft out of 4L ZJ should work. ill try to find one before i get mine shortened.


spoo.... how much did he charge you?

Truckworks built me a driveshaft for my RX7 when my U-Joint gave out. They did awesome work, built to handle 500+ torque. Only cost me about 350...

full custom with a shaft and both yokes?

i just need 2 cuts on a bandsaw and a weld. and maybe a balance.

Built from a nissan king cab shaft, with the RX7 yoke on the transmission end. The other end bolted up to the yoke on the diff, and the Nissan shaft had the right size bolt up piece that fit. It was very nice work.
