    I'm going to be out of town for training. Flying there and will have a rental the whole time. I would drive the truck, but my daily commute is going to be at least 80 miles a day.
    Nope, I drive the truck more during the Winter than any other season now. I don't have any other vehicle but the bike.

    I'm not sure what that is, but sounds like a pain in the arse lol! Good for you though, I'll have to look into something like that if I ever move to snow country.

    So I've decided against ordering a rear drive shaft from Tom Woods. I have found a full replacement front half/rear half drive shaft for not much more. Also would be much easier to just bolt this whole one on versus still having to get the carrier bearing and a few u-joints replaced.

    So now it looks like the only two things I need a shop to do is wheel bearings and LBJ's.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Why do you need a new rear driveshaft?

    It's beat up from a rock as well as one of the zerks is sheared off. Plus all the u-joints and carrier bearing need to be replaced anyways.

    Figure buying a whole new drive shaft is cheaper and easier than paying a shop to replace the u-joints, carrier bearing, and install a new rear half drive shaft.
