Drive shaft
OK after reading the post
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=324948 on here about rebuilding the drive shaft I decided it was time to check mine out. I had it built and cut back when I installed the 700-R4 way back in the 90's. I have another drive shaft and plan to take it tomorrow and have it done. 3" out of the front half of the shaft and all new u joints installed and balanced. I have no clue what it will cost but I feel it will be worth it since I have some viberation in the one that's installed now.

Re: Drive shaft
I hope it does and yes I will update when back installed. I took some quick pictures of the old shaft I have.
    Hope your sons works out OK too!
