Called my local, and only trustworthy, driveshaft shop today to get a price on a new shaft for my glide swap. For a new shaft with a powerglide yoke and small chrysler rear was going to be $332 for a 3" steel shaft. Is that price out of line? seemed high to me but I have also never had a new one made, always just have it cut and balanced.

I gave $345.00 plus shipping for mine from Driveshaft Specialists in Texas,, so it don't seem out of line to me., and I supplied the yoke.

Driveline Service in Pittsburgh did one for Matt and I for our race cars. 180 dollars with (2) 1350 series ujoints included. We supplied our own yokes. Ordered it on the phone and picked it up the next day.

I just had a 3.5" shaft made for my diesel pickup....$550 with slider, ujoints. To lengthen the front shaft and build the new rear one was $650. Thats after he cut me some deals on parts, and ate some shipping.

I was going to have $1200 in a new front and rear shafts, so I think your doing ok.

What steel.. I gave $345 for a DOM and they supplied
the U-joints but I had the yoke... cut to length and
balanced... that was 1350 joints

Had 3 inch diameter .080 mild steel with two new 7290 yokes and u joints made last march for 225.00

driveline service in Vegas.

i supplied the 1350 joints and trans yoke to build a 3" balanced shaft , cost $250., got it a couple days later.

I sell balanced 3" cr-mo driveshafts with Spicer 1350 U-joints and slip yoke installed for $350 delivered. Add $70 for forged steel pinion yoke (U-bolts included).

I paid $1200 for my last one...




Oh yeah it was carbon fiber.
