I'm surprised no one has mentioned building a square tube front shaft...
I've read people have mixed results with those......comments like "paint shaker" come to mind. Also if I was going to do this, I may as well just have the cv removed and get the driveline guy to putter Spicer u joint on each end. He quoted around $500 to do this the original one.
Mudder, do you run square homemade shaft? Had good luck with them? ....I don't have access to a welder now anyway, so I'd have to pay someone for all the fab work and joints.
It's frustrating.....Guess I'm just learning lessons the hard way over. I'm thinking just take it back and pay to have the Spicer joints put in the late model one. Seems like best option right? Cheaper option is buy an early model used one and switch the flange back out on the t-case......not really keen on buying 30 year old parts, but I like my money too!
