Short Driveshafts...

[IanHappens]

Does anyone have any experience or recommendations on where to get a short drive shaft build? I am currently in the market for a 12in shaft with a cv joint on the Transfer Case side and a u joint on the axle side. The problem I'm currently having is no one in my area wants to build it.

I've got the Tom Woods CV shaft in the rear of my CJ5 . Also have the TW front shaft.



TW shows an incredibly short CV style shaft for use in a CJ5 with the 700R4 automatic Transmission install.

If not Tom Woods, then High Angle Driveline.

I urge you to call before internal damage is done to your driveline.

What kind of internal damage am I looking at to the yokes, Transfer Case or differential? Or just the shaft and u joints?

T'case and rear diff is a possibility because vibes and bearings don't mix well.

Also, with mine it melted the u-joint and broke free while doing 65 on the freeway... from the Transfer Case ... I'm lucky I was not catapulted / jeep didn't do a pole vault!

I agree with LG - take care of it now. If the vibration is that bad, it's already doing other damage he lists too.
