    That will not be safely up to the task past 60 mph. The first one they sold you, more like 50 mph.
    You did all the right things. The shop you dealt with doesn't know what they are doing.

    Well I just got off the phone with them and they are ordering me a Tom Woods. But I went to bolt up the driveshaft they made me just to make sure the length was correct and it wouldn’t even bolt up. They used the wrong flange for the t-case end...lol

    Another one-piece? Did they supply you with a specification of the critical speed rating of this latest one?

    Yes but from Tom Woods.

    And no they didn’t supply me with a critical speed rating. It’s not their driveshaft so I don’t see how they could. Maybe Tom Woods does?

    You won't regret a TW DS. Trust me, I have spun them in some very high horse power 4x4s and never had a problem with them exploding. Here is a pic of another one of my trucks with his shafts.
