Snapped My Drive Shaft

[OG-TERROR]

Snapped my drive shaft after gunning it into an intersection, time for a drive shaft upgrade. Way too much power thatz why I wanted it to snap sooner than later so I have a reason to upgrade. I'm glad it snapped and glad it snapped on the road rather than on a trial off roading.

Has any one upgraded there drive shaft, what do you recommend?

I would just go to a local driveline shop and have them make you a custom one.

I wouldnt know where to tell you to go on the west coast.. if you were here in florida.. i would send you to advance driveline. They build driveshafts for the biggest and baddest mud racing/ trail rigs around...ive had them build me 2 drive shafts... havent broke one yet! Ive got all their u joints in my big truck.

John Force Racing is right there in YL, he knows how to harness the hp. Seriously I'm not sure who in your area does the stuff. All the driveshafts I ever had built were done by local speed shops. Sorry 'bout the luck.

No problem I was expecting for it to happen any time now, I truly abuse my truck, now I have the German who can attest to that.

So bottom line my best bet is to have a drive line build me a drive shaft specifically for my truck?

If it were me, yes that's what I would do. I'm sure there are plenty of driveline shops there in your area.

Yes I would. Like Brian said, get a beefed up shaft built specifically for your truck. and dont forget to beef up your u-joints also.
