Hey couldn't make it up on his all terrains and started backing down. He backed down at an angle and his tires went up on the side there and he tipped.

Is the full SYE longer than the HNT? I have a 5spd. If not, who is a reputable driveshaft shop to lengthen a driveshaft for me?
I have seen these guys: http://www.markwilliams.com/
But have never used them.

hope this helps you out

I might see if I can't find a ZJ shaft with the HNT and then if that is too short get someone to lengthen it. Don't particularly want to fork over $500 for a custom ds. LOL

I have a WJ driveshaft....It sits at 34.5 inches. You can have it for $25 if you want it bro!!

I use frontrange driveline in englewood for my d-shaft needs. Full custom shaft cost me about $300......But I have had a lot of work done there.


Off to the shop....16 hr day today!!
