busted driveshaft
this is 4th gen related but you guys are the best help on the net so I hope you will be able to help me. I busted my 2 pieces driveshaft on my firebird yesterday, the center joint (somekind of bearing?) was torn apart and now GM just told me that I can't just change that, I have to buy a new driveshaft (1200$ CND!!!) Did it ever happened to someone and can it be fixed, rebuilt? I'm bringing the driveshaft tomorrow to a specialized place but the guy never saw that kind of driveshaft so it worries me a bit since 4th gens are awefully rare in junkyards... anyone has any imput on this?
thanks
thanks

Yup, all the same, any car with a 700R4 or 4L60E automatic, a T-5, or a T-56. Only ones that are different are older cars with a 200 auto or a 4-speed.
