Parts to build your own Driveshaft

93 Krawler · 06-25-2013, 08:30 PM

I'm looking to build a new front driveshaft. I already have a 16 spline x 14" slip on my rig, but the guys at Cincinnati Driveline & Hydraulics only used an 2 1/2" splined female slip and now it wobbles like crazy. They suck! I need to find at least a 6" 16 spline female collar and some DOM tube to match it. The other end is just a 1350 joint. Anybody know of a place online or in town that would have these parts?

You can't get CDH to make good on their work?

No help with parts, sorry...

I tried, they just looked at me like it was my fault.
They are good if you need a stock shaft. I had them build both shafts for me. I told them what I was doing with the truck, and it needed to be strong. They used .083 tube, yeah, that didn't last long... The front CV died in Harlan first trip. I sleeved them with sch. 40 pipe after I twisted them in half.

you might try parts for a PTO shaft for a tractor. They are big and beefy looking but I would not want one if you plan on driving it on the road or going fast in Hi range.

Correction. I was way off. It's an 1 5/8 - 16 spline shaft, not 10... Not sure where I got that at?? This might be easier to find...

Looked for hours and can't find anything. Found plenty of 16 spline stuff, just not 1 5/8.
