[QUOTE="nerotxc, post: 1346530, member: 18750"] so much for driving... took it out, 2 miles down the road my drive shaft u joint came apart. on a 2 lane highway. a nice sherriff was kind enough to escort me to the nearest abondoned house with a nice u-driveway that i could be pushed into. so now i am getting thrown in to my next mod. since i need a driveshaft repaired, i might as well get it lengthened too. I have 56" rear springs and i dont like how close my rear tires are to the cab, so i am reversing the leafs so i extend my wheelbase 4"s while keeping my frame shortened. I think that will give it a nice look. Im also going to weld my rear bumper on. I did get my rear LED trailer lights mounted however they dont put enough load on the flasher to make it blink for the turns. I might put a resistor in line. anyone on here do driveshafts? i thought i might just lengthen it myself, but i dont know what i would do for balancing, can i take it to a shop just to balance? idk if thats possible. well while typing this i called a driveshaft place here in marysville. He suggested a 2 piece drive shaft. My thinking to save money, since i have an extra front driveshaft is to use the one i have, install a carrier bearing and shorten my existing rear to finish it. any thoughts on it? [/QUOTE]
