Shortening stock shaft+yoke+1 bastard joint = $175
Trading some parts for new shaft. New yoke, 2 bastard joints, shortening and balance = $205
Total investment = $380+ for a driveshaft
If I would have had a custom shaft made to start with = ~$350-$400
Stock shaft causes destruction of trans cost = ~$2000
Extra $ wasted on shaft .....................................$30+
Total expense cost for cutting corners to start with=$2030+
Showing how big of a dumb *** you are trying to save $175 = PRICELESS!
At least I have a Matercard!
