Hmm, time for something stronger... musta been all that whopping 22RE torque.. twisted, bent, AND split at the clearanced point.

That mud pit also took out all the front wheel bearings & races At least the kingpin bearings were still ok.

Isn't that .25" wall? That is crazy cool :sonicjay:

Square is the new round.. Havn't you heard ?? Also a square d shaft is a lot cheaper than having tom woods build ya one :thumb:

 

[Haggar]

Yeah, 0.25" wall. It nevre broke, but was thumping/bound pretty bad.

I use the square up front for the amount of slip. I need about 8-9" of travel in the front shaft with the long springs and rear mounted shackles (I easily max 13" shocks up front).

I'll probably build one with 0.25" wall DOM round and a 12" SY. Or move to 2.5" / 2" tube (that one was only 2" / 1.5" tube).

I also have a squire driveshaft up front. Never thought you could twist it like that. Going to have to try that when i get the 350 up and going.:tonka:

Did yours click and clunk or was it a tight fit in eash other?

 

[Hacksaw]

You should learn how to drive and your shit wouldn't break

A little bit of clunking in 2wd, 4wd it was pretty quiet.

You should learn how to your shit in the garage like me, and it wouldn't break

:sonicjay::sonicjay::sonicjay::sonicjay::sonicjay:

Too true...

 

[Hacksaw]

Yes, you should learn how to your shit in the garage

Nice try.

 

[Mud'N'Truck]

Mine is very loud. In 4 wheel every one around me starts giving me looks like what the heck is wrong with your truck. Your squire tubes must fit tighter together then mine.

Put some socks on you damn hillbilly.

 

[C.K.]

Just another reason why round is better than square.oke:

 

[95geo]

i made mine this go-around, 2.5" 3/16" wall tube. i bought the ends from rockford driveline, $100 per shaft plus the tube. It only has 3" of slip though....... i know www.drivelinetech.com has a badass spline available that is about 2" in diameter and as lond as you want it.

:rock:

Trail-gear sells the long slip stuff, but about $180 or so for it.
