Theres not much rocks to play on but theres alot of sand and mud and clay where I live, probably not nearly as fun as places in the mainland. I finished my front drive shaft today it came out prity nice it's also straight as an arrow. I grinded the weld smooth in the double cardon side then cut the shaft off right before the weld with a pipe cutter. Then I cut a peice the size I needed from an extra rear driveshaft with the pipe cutter. Then I put the double cardon joint on one side and the marlin drive shaft extention on the other, it was a tight fit to get the shaft over the shoulders but it worked out good. Then I bolted the shaft in place and took a peice of 1/8 rod and clamped it to the frame then bent the other end so that it was about 1/32 away from the shaft then I turned the shaft by hand and tapped it here and there to get it trued up then once it was all good I tacked it in place alternating sides then took it out welded it up then reinstalled it and rechecked for straightness and it was perfect. I would like to angle the pinion up allitle with some shims I have some aluminum ones has anyone had problems with them cracking? Now that im done whit the driveshaft I can start working on finnishing up my on board air.
