If there aren't any good driveline shops in your area, I'd contact this place: Tom Wood's Custom Drive Shafts - Tom Woods Custom Drive Shafts Custom Driveshafts Specialist I had several driveshafts built by Tom Wood, years ago when he was an just employee at another driveline shop. He built Excellent driveshafts back then. I assume he still does with his own business.
