tom woods drive shaft help!

ok i'm going to be ordering a one piece drive shaft from tom woods, but i need to how the hell i'm suppose to measure how long it needs to be. Do i measure from the flange on the transfer case to the flange on the rear diff. or from center of u joint on the transfer to center of the u joint on the rear diff?

 

I would imagine they would have those answers. Call them and ask. That way you can be sure how they want it measured.

 

Call them and ask.

 

Great idea!

 

yeah after i posted this i realized hey why don't i just call

 

and you're 3 hours ahead of his shop too.

(i luckily can drive 20 minutes and be at his front door, lol)

 

ha ha lucky bastard! I tried a "local" shop that build drive shafts but the guy argued with me that they should just rebuild my double cardan joint for $300. Then when i did get them to give me a price on a one piece with a double cardan and slip joint, they were going to charge me $550 for it using parts off my drive shaft.
