Custom Aluminum Driveshaft

[hemi_fan]

Any recommendations on where to get a custom aluminum driveshaft for my 90 GT? I installed the MM x-member and want to take advantage of its ability to set the engine 1" back. Stock DS is basically bottomed out in the T5 so need one 1.75-2" shorter. Figure I might as well go Al while I'm at it.

Also wondering of it's cheaper to go full custom or order an aluminum ds and have someone shorten it locally. I'm in Waterloo.

Best guy I know in the business will no longer shorten alum shafts citing impurities in the cheap alum they are all using results in a far less than perfect weld.

Has been a long time. Moved to Waterloo from Windsor last summer and decided to get the old fox road course ready Hopefully I can get it back on the road this summer. Lots of work to do though.

Would be freakin awesome to see you back out again.

Pat's driveline in Mississauga will shorten an aluminum driveshaft, it will run you about $300 to shorten and balance.

Heard good things about them.

What is D&D? I'll check out Pat's.

Found some sources online but all in the US. There are cheap 3" custom shafts that I think would work but are a downgrade strength wise. A couple of shops doing 3.5" complete yoke to flange though.

If I cant find something local, Denny's looks like it could be a good option. Nervous about shipping cost though.

In Michigan, not sure if they do custom shafts or not.

Ah I remember those guys. Worked in Wixom a few years but never bought anything from them.

Just found out 03/04 terminator driveshaft are 0.8" shorter than GT. Not quite as short as I'd like but might work if anyone has a line on a cheap one.
