Since its a long travel front drive line then they wont bother balancing it so that will lower the price some. Is this one of the 10 spline or stock spine long travel drive line ? Just to give you a ref price. There is shop near me in tracy which will shorten and balance drive lines for 100 bucks. Tho I just got done shortening my rear drive shaft today. I cant balance it but I am sure it will be fine for the trail. Guess ill see if I got it good enough to be road worthy. It took me bout 2-3 hrs total to get it done so I would guess I shop would do it in less then half that time.
