Who's broken there drive shaft
Just wondering who has broken there drive shaft I am replaceing my 4l60 with an 80 and have to shorten my D/S is the stock one strong enough or should I up grade. My goals with this truck is to get it to run 11.5 then slow it down to run consistant 11.7s

Mine wasn't a high speed break, I broke mine rolling down an on ramp at 20MPH, saw an opening and floor it.
Proof that the volkswagon's commercial have some clout, a circle is stronger. Look how thin that metal is. Well, of course not so much stronger on my set up apparently.

Mine wrung the yoke head off and my u joint went flying somewhere and then I head a loud thud followed by scrapping sound. I said "****..there went the driveshaft".....and my situation was kinda like Dewy's. I was driving to Abingdon on the interstate and pulled out to pass a 18 Wheeler and then.....boom!
But I shortly afterwrad called a friend of mine and he made me a new driveline......and haven't had any problems since! I'm pretty sure Dewy knows the guy I'm talking about...lol
