Just throwing out ideas, you would have a stronger driveshaft, save $300, and probably have it in just as much time as it is going to take to have the other one shipped from Detroit....

I concur with truck chris. just go to a driveline shop, I know when Bill(vette chris) got one for his Formula it didnt take to long it and it didnt cost a lot. plus it was much stronger than the stocker.

IMHO:
Aluminum = Beer cans (mmmmmmmm, beer)
Steel/Carbon fiber = Driveshaft

We recently had a member break his aluminum driveshaft. Clutch dump @ 3400 rpm should've been no problem. Guess the DR's were a little sticker than normal that day......

Wouldn't surprise me if that's what did it. Just took a couple days and a few passes on the track to show it's ugly face.

Dude, $750??????. You are Crazy. That is outrageous. I will post up on AZFBA and see if anyone has a stock Alum. DS laying around. If they do i will give u there number. $750 is insane.

But yeah, I want to go to Vegas bad. But my family is out of town this weekend and i have to take care of all the animals and ****. ****** GAY.

And what the hell is OMRFTL ???

U could try, SLOWFRC/SLOFRC or STKFRC/STOKFRC.

Greg, U want to buy my Silver 18x9.5 Zo6 wheels with 275/35 Nittos all around?? Tires still have atleast 50% tread left. Probably more. 2 or 3 of the center caps need to be re-painted. The paint peeled off. But they are in pretty good shape. I found some drag wheels i want. So i cant take any less then $750 for all 4. Let me know.

-Blaze
