Where do you guys get your driveshafts from?

I agree that Jesse's stuff is probably top of the line...but do you really need top of the line stuff?

- Do you really need the CV's?
- Do even really need 1350's?

Again, I'm not saying the above are bad or anything but if money is a factor you need to ask those questions.

Yep, that's kinda what I am thinking. On the rear I have to do CV due to the pinion brake setup on the Stak. Rear is $419 plus $69 yoke for the D60

I really don't want to go CV on the front, because that will open a whole new can of worms with the front axle caster and pinon angle. Guess I could check into doing 1310s or 1410s on the front which would allow up to 30degrees with a standard driveshaft.
I am going to call Jesse today and see if there is any other options on the front.

About 8 years ago when I put the new frame on with the shackle reverse I needed the long slip front drive shaft. All the drive line shops in Dayton just had the 3 inch slip joint:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: I got the front drive shaft from Jess, great service and excellent to do business with. It is beefy and the only thing I don't worry about breaking.
