where can i get a custom made driveshaft , my grandfather shortened mine i think 1 inch and it wobbles , so i need to have another one made, i want a place where i tell them the specs and they make it out a a brand new one , i dont wanna spend more than 300 on it .

just about anywhere with a lathe long enough that has a 4 jaw chuck and a steady rest. look in the yellow pages under drive train, transmission, or machine shop

thanks for all the help .

I had mine made at a local drivetrain shop that specializes in heavy trucks. I supplied the tranny slip yoke and u-joint because it's needed for balancing. I gave them the length I wanted and told them to use 1350 series full round ends. The driveshaft is made from 3" x .083 steel.

Slide the slip yoke into the tranny all the way then pull it out 1". Measure from the center of the u-joint on the slip yoke to the center of the u-joint on the diff yoke. That's the length you want.

I had mine made quite a few years ago but I think it was around $200. I've never had a problem with it since then. If made from smaller material and smaller u-joint caps, it might be cheaper but at least if a drivetrain shop builds it, you'll know it will be straight and balanced. They weld the ends on while on the lathe with a fancy machine.

Same here, OTR truck shop. 3" shaft, Spicer Severe duty 1350 solid ujoints $200 out the door.

had mine made at a large truck repair shop they work on dump trucks busses and fire trucks. it was great they let me in the shop to pick out tube , yokes and u joints i wanted threw it all on a lathe with a welder and walla new drive shaft. 45 min and $ 160 i was good to go.
