So I've been chasing down a vibration and after going through some things, I removed my front drive shaft and it eliminated like 90% of vibrations. The u joints are good so I am assuming it's the centering ball. I found the pieces on amazon and for it all. It would come out to like 120 for the center ball and 2 joints(the one is brand new). Now would that be all I need to rebuild and be good to go? Cause if so I will do both the front and rear (rear is a front with sye). It would come out to like 240.i can get a brand new Adams shaft for 235. Would I be better off rebuilding both or get a new one for the rear and send the good one I have now to the front?

I'd get a new one for the rear and send the good one you are currently running to the front. Rebuild the shaft when you have the time and money, then keep it with you on the trail as a spare which is nice because it works in the front or rear!

Yeah I will probably pick up an Adams drive shaft. I was thinking about getting another from a junkyard but I spend 50 here, but then that one could craps out in a year or two and I'll be in the same boat. Atleast with a brand new rear one I'll be good for a long time
