It is in pieces and probably not worth your time brother.

Thanks for the help anyway. If I can't find one today, then I'm sending out for repair.

James, My drive shaft carrier bearing went out in Dec and I replaced it with a Ge-Force 2 piece driveshaft. Well worth the money. I got it used for $800.
Now Im waiting on my new Alradco aluminum radiator to come in today.

I have an extra one. I don't think the carrier bearing can be repaired. Let me know if you still need one.

@stone17, mine went out in December as well, about a month after we did my clutch setup.. There's a guy on this board and the other board that says he can repair it. Unless something drastic happens, I'm going to let him fix it. $325+ shipping to them.

Krj6306 I'll pm you for price

Their two piece design is probably the best solution to the stock driveshaft failures. I read on their site that it's supposedly lighter than the stock shaft. Do you know how much lighter it is?

Trust me, I would if I could. Just spent $1400 replacing the clutch/flywheel before Thanksgiving. Then Christmas, New Year, and Anniversary hit. I'm strapped for cash bro. Best deal I've found so far was a new OEM shaft for $870.

I still have my OEM driveshaft left over from my CS 8.8 install. PM me if you are interested - 70k miles on it and carrier bearing is fine.
