Where do y'all recommend getting a custome front shaft made? Local shop wanted $290 to redo and lengthen my shaft.

Sounds about right, my local shop charged me $275. You can try Dennys Driveshafts also, heard good things about them.

yeah they did but it will be almost impossible to break it it has 1410 u joints the slip joint will slide in and out about 18 inches and will run at up to a 42 degree angle

top shaft is the stock one bottom shaft is the one from high angle drive

Kenbob Id say you got your $275 worth on that shaft, it looks ready to take a beating and maybe do a little beating in return. That thing looks sweet!
