The front shaft on RockGoddess's SII was wasted! Picked up some receiver tubing and went to work. Should be strong as hell!

Old beat-up shaft

Yeah, having it out of phase like that is going to cause you all kinds of vibration problems when you run it engaged on the freeway!!!! It will probably shake so much from being out of phase, that you won't be able to feel the vibration from the square tubing....

Nah try pieces of golf balls.

I would say whole golf balls but you might have trouble fitting them in the shaft.

Theres a shop up by me that has drivelines for tractors that are similar to that but they are made out of oval tube that has a ridge on both sides.

Please tell me your not serious, I was planning on using this for my rear D-shaft as well. So you think it'll vibrate.

Yes- it has a 727 and Yes- I know it's out of phase:rolleyes: I repaired the error before it was installed. It took about 2 seconds to fix!

It's close, but not too close. No problems :)
