no, I would be divorced if I ordered some shafts from Bobby,
I ordered a set of yukons and some spicer stubs from Branik Motorsports, they had the best price

I don't think you have to worry about breaking the u-joints much on a d60. Davido runs regular ones. Scott didn't approve of my 30 year old stock ones, they still haven't broken. If anybody's throwing out stock 30 spline stubs feel free to send them my way. I like to break things at least 3-4 times before upgrading.

I broke a "normal" U-joint in Pigpen when I still had a 6.2 and I'm running 30 spline outters. Just sayin...it can happen.
On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
I've broken 2 35 spline stubs and a ring & pinion in my 60 and have never broken a u-joint.
my u-joints are what cut loose at TCC (and then was able to 'persueade' the lobes on the 35 spl stubs back into shape and get some more wheelin in )
I would just say get what ever hoerielys has on the shelf and get a spare while you are there, If I didn't know how you wheel that is...
Sounds like you have a good plan worked out on the shafts and u-joints that fits in your budget for now.
i think it will be fine,
I would have run stock shafts, but once I ship it to duchman, have it shortened, and have it shipped back it is almost the same price as a yukon shaft.
