Looking for someone local (if possible) To make a Aluminum 1 piece drive shaft. i just wieghed my stock one when the diff was out and its 78lbs. this would be an improvement in a number of ways. Also any guess on price? 500+? ---

I would imagine it would be less than that. Online you can get them for about $400 + shipping. I got mine from [driveshaftshop.com](http://driveshaftshop.com) but that cost more since it was a custom length/yoke. ---

> [@SBC427](#): > > Hank, you don’t do aluminum stuff? I DO!! but i don’t have a dealer or i should say have inquired about end cap’s for drive shafts or no way to balance it. so u would end up taking it to universal or precision to have it balanced any ways… OOO i don’t do ebay aluminum. it does not weld and if u get it to weld it looks like shit. i felt so bad about the way the last egay shit came out i gave that shit away for free. couldn’t bring my self to charge sum sumone for it!!! :nod these r just the two local shop that i know of. i personally use a place out of Syracuse. ---
