one or two piece..?
You guys that have the bagged 60's model trucks what drive shafts are you running, 1 or 2 piece and if you have any pics that would be cool. I was thinking just to do the one piece just because of less parts to wear and deal with but at the same time i dont want to notch the floor to clear it but it doesnt matter since its gone this far but im just curious to see what anyone else did. Ill get some pics up when i get on my own computer.

Re: one or two piece..?
The point of the 2-piece model is actually strength. It takes a lot bigger diameter tubing to make a one piece shaft for the same length.

Re: one or two piece..?
Yeah im not so much worried about strength its going to be a cruiser and not have a high horse power plant in it. Im at the point now on the frame where i would have to build the bracket for a carrier bearing or just notch the floor and go with a one piece, im just trying to get ideas and see what others did in this situation.
