Driving home last night I threw my drive shaft out. Here's the carnage, Does anyone have an extra one or an extra rear drive shaft? I need to fix her up because she's my DD.

I have one, but it's the Rapezza style with the cups on each end.
 
I don't know if that will work. It would be easier if I swapped in the same thing but I'm not dropin' the money for one from a parts store. I'll let you know if I need it. What would it take for me to make it work in mine?
 
I have a d/s I just took out of my 85, 5 spd. on Saturday. I was going to replace the u-joints, but I had another d/s laying stored away that had good u-joints so I put it on instead.

Long story short.... I have a good d/s that needs u-joints.:icon_thumby:
Shoot me a pm if you still need it & wanna work something out.
 
I'll let you know Addict, I found a truck/drive shaft shop that might have what I need. I'll stop by this afternoon to talk with them. If Not I'll give you a shout. THANKS a lot for the help!
 
No problem man! Hopefully they can get you rollin!:icon_thumby:
 
Well I got her pieced back together. I found a local truck parts shop that had a part that would work. They discontinued making that slip yoke so I got one 2-3 inches shorter to get me down the road. Thanks To everybody for the quick responses and all the help!
 
Glad to hear you got her going man, if you have any problems out of it, remember I have one!!:icon_thumby:
