    No idea haven't talked to them yet. However a custom shop in TX replied to my inquiries so doing some research with them. Too bad no local shops by me. Closest is 125miles!

    If they don't reply to e-mail, I'll be doing some measurements this weekend and call them sometime next week. The TX place is more expensive but replied right away...(I kind of like that...)...

    Flange to carrier bearing the carrier bearing to the pinion flange. Also the diameter of the flanges. To do that you measure center of bolt hole diagonally to the center of another bolt hole that gets you the diameter and you can figure out the circumference. Those are the initial measurements needed.
    I didn't get to it this weekend myself...too many other things going on.

    I had a dc joint added to my stock shaft, and it has worked flawlessly. I am regeared so kept the carrier bearing. This setup is essentially a backdated 2nd gen to a first gen type setup.

    This is exactly what I want. Does this fix the weird "jolt" when going from 1st to 2nd?

    See I was worried for a while... i thought my first gear was going out. Then when I lowered the carrier bearing it lessened the jerk, I realized that it must just be the damn shitty joints making 1st to 2nd jerk.
    So where did you get that one?

    Any driveshaft shop can do it. Splines match up to CJ 5-7ish transfer case output shaft. Here’s the part numbers needed.

    Literally front half of shaft is the same, rear is flipped, cut down and cv added.

    Well see it seems like most of you guys live in areas where this stuff is common. I have a hard time finding a place that will do anything beyond just basic stuff... haha. I am still searching for a driveshaft shop.
