Anyone have a recommended local shop for re-tubing (and balance) a driveshaft?

Midwest drive shaft said they would work on your Jap Crap.

Drinking and posting again?

I've used Southwest drive shaft in Aurora too. They are really cheap, but horribly unreliable, slow and pretty shady.

John drinking and posting is a given. He even slurs while typing. Just apply the inverse and you probably have the correct answer.

Cool, thanks guys!

I will go to Midwest Driveshaft new and remanufactured driveshafts, driveshaft repair in St. Charles.

Do you guys have a recommended wall thickness for an 80?

drinking and posting... been there... has some stupid comments

"They were refered to me by Todd." is that a disclaimer?

Sounds like it. Right up there with "May cause headaches, dry mouth and anal leakage"

Ouch that hurt to the cockles of my heart...if I had one. Now, if you don't behave I'll swipe your Marlin Crawler beanie and do worse things to it than I did the little green one!

Shake down run Friday for Brian and I at the Cliff's if anyone is interested. I also scored a Detroit EZ Locker. I should be able to install that Thursday night to test out Friday morning.

At least I didn't say my trans was overheating and my pedicure is still fresh. Unlike you I have the cojones to say that I am willing to wrench a while in the evening to get my rig ready. Oh I forgot, you have to be in before the street lights are on.

Hmmm, Not sure where to start....

Well here; Shit talking 101: Shit talking must be rooted in some way to reality to be effective. I.E. Your above comment doesnt make sense on many levels.

1. "wrenching all night to wheel the next day" My junk is always ready. Even if that means a 9 day 3.4 swap.
2. "Unlike you I have cojones" Phil ....we both know this is false.
3. "Pedicure".... sad.

Let me give you an example. If I were to know a guy who takes months to to lift a leaf sprung truck and do a birf job. And said person noted their plans of a locker install the day before a wheeling trip I would say something like...All I hear is blah blah blah... Im not going to wheel on friday....and thats just off the top of my head.

Now you try....

Maybe if he's a fool. I wouldn't go anywhere near there in thunderstorms and tornados.

I did the Cliff's and the only thing flying was the mud. Absolute sloppy for the first couple of hours but it stopped raining long enough for us to wheel. We and a little J**P dude had the place to ourselves and played nicely together.
