anybody heard of/had experience with Rockford Drivelines (http://www.rockforddriveline.com), or Chicago Driveline (http://www.shafts.com)?
Since winter time is comin, need to get a front d/s back into my Sploder, and don't want to use that damned POS CV shaft... they both make conversion plates to use a double-cardan joint instead.
Or where else could I look?

bump....
anybody?
winter be a comin... :burnout:
 






Call Matt at Attitude Performance (Elk Grove Village)... he knows a place that does that and even wanted to use one in my Sport. I have no idea if it's Chicago or Rockford though. He did most of the work on my sploders in the past so I assume he knows at least one of these companies.

here ya go:

well it's a negative on High Angle Driveline... they want $495.
 






:eek: For a 2-joint shaft!?

I could build one and ship it cross-country for that!

You do know you could wind up with a vibration if you do this though, right?
 






Just realized your in AK! Call us, we can build one!

huh? smaller?

Racerx70, you by chance happen to be on the alaska4x4network boards?

and yes.. a 2-joint shaft. I got a reply from Chicago Driveline saying it will cause vibration issues... so maybe a double-carden is what's needed. Regardless, I need a flange to bolt to the t-case. Or atleast get rid of that POS ball-and-cage style CV-joint
