Question for you engineering types. Since I dont know what normal driveshafts are made out of, do yall think the 1.25" OD male splined stock made out of 1117 cold rolled mild steel will handle front driveshaft duties on Pigpen? Here's the link to the vendor, the part number is 1187-20-2.

I'm trying to kludge together a long slip front shaft that isnt square tube and this is the only supplier of raw spline stock I have found. Thanks

i dont know much about materials, but have you tried to contact tom woods or high angle to wee what you can get the slip portion for?

Havent asked HAD about just the slip material but a shaft from him would be ~$495 + $100 for the 32 spline t-case flange. He has to get it from somewhere...

you can use the stock flange on the front output of the 205, if its stock spline, or get one from a 208 i think, what ever one i got from you to run 32 spline and it is much cheaper, all you have to do is swap the seal which is like $5
If I'm gonna shell out for a 1350 CV shaft I'm gonna put a 32 spline front output in while I'm at it. I already have a Ford 205 to rob the output from.

all i was saying is it wont cost 100 for the flange, it will be between 5 and 30 dollars to put the 208 flange on it
you can get the spline stock at Napa along with the coupler that you weld the driveshaft tube too. I am pretty sure that is the material that HAD uses
Creighton, you have done stuff with that jeep that would make a goat go "holy ****!"
link or part numbers?
Sharpe I am sure you can get the splined stock at BVD. But they will probably want an arm and a leg.
most d-shaft shops only have short spline sections for normal driveshafts. its been a while, but the last time i looked for long spline shaft, it was hard to find.
I got a 12" section of splined stock from BVD in May 2009 to fix the twisted portion on my rear d-shaft. If I remember right it was about $100. Here is a pic of the twisted piece, the replacement one looks exactly the same. http://tamor.org/forums/showpost.php...&postcount=406
im sorry your lover isnt renewing his dues.

no but I could get it. Unfortunately it only comes in 3ft sections at $100 a ft
