Driving home last night I threw my drive shaft out. Here's the carnage, Does anyone have an extra one or an extra rear drive shaft? I need to fix her up because she's my DD.

I have one, but it's the Rapezza style with the cups on each end.

I don't know if that will work. It would be easier if I swapped in the same thing but I'm not dropin' the money for one from a parts store. I'll let you know if I need it. What would it take for me to make it work in mine?

I have a d/s I just took out of my 85, 5 spd. on Saturday. I was going to replace the u-joints, but I had another d/s laying stored away that had good u-joints so I put it on instead.

Long story short.... I have a good d/s that needs u-joints.:icon_thumby:
Shoot me a pm if you still need it & wanna work something out.

I'll let you know Addict, I found a truck/drive shaft shop that might have what I need. I'll stop by this afternoon to talk with them. If Not I'll give you a shout. THANKS a lot for the help!

Well I got her pieced back together. I found a local truck parts shop that had a part that would work. They discontinued making that slip yoke so I got one 2-3 inches shorter to get me down the road. Thanks To everybody for the quick responses and all the help!
