I need a rear drive shaft for my dad's truck, 5.8/e4od/bw case with the slip yoke, reg cab long bed. I've tried the yards around here and can't find anything else. Any idea where I could find one?
If you can't find a used one, it may be cheaper to have one made than buying a new one. Or if you can find one long enough, that has the right ends, cut it down and then have it balanced. Around here, it's only $35 to have a shaft balanced.
There is a shop up the road that does drive shafts, but they're $$$ and my dad doesn't really like the guy. I emailed the place in that first link Junior, if that's $$$ too I might try to find a longer one and have it shortened then.
