I can understand that. I had the super35 kit 6 or so years ago with a Detroit. I snapped a shaft on a trail and I was **** out of luck. They are a custom shaft and no one on the trail I was on had a spare. I sold the d35 (which took almost a year to sell) for half the price of the super35 kit. DONT do it. Wait and see what you can find. Even if its a arm and a leg price wise I would still buy it.

if you are in camp pendleton head down to the junkyards in Chula Vista. There are tons of yards all in very close proximity. Finding an 8.8 or 8.25 should be no problem
