You are comparing something that you do once maybe twice during the life of a car and something you should be doing monthly.
The point is, some people have the capabilities no matter how often they do it and some don't. Doing a driveshaft yourself is no different than building a motor (which one might do only every few years) if you know how to do it correctly.
People have been "backyarding" driveshafts since the beginning of hotrodding.
Which I understand. But the OP is asking if what he will be doing will suffice and if he is missing anything. We can infer he has never done one before...when I built my first motor I didn't ask a whole bunch of questions...I just did it by a book...and it worked. Even the most knowledgeable welders will still take it to a driveshaft shop because weld is one thing...the balance is not.
We all give our "in favor of" and "against the job" for various things. If the OP'er (and no offense to him) was sure about doing it...he wouldn't have asked.
