WHOOOT!! I got my driveshaft back from the driveline shop today. VERY nice job I must say.

The Middle piece is the front section of a stock DSM driveshaft with the U-joint removed. The bottom piece is the rear carrier bearing removed from the two rear sections of the driveshaft. The Top piece is the modified rear piece.


Image

And now when I combine the new piece with the original front section, I get this!

Image

All I need to do now is fab up a mount for that carrier bearing, finish the ehxaust, and fill it up with fluids!

So I woke up early to get a start on the car, I had to fabricate the mount for the carrier bearing in here:

I started by making brackets like these with holes for the studs.

Image

Tacked them up into place

Image

WHOOT!!!

Thanks! yeah its close, but they aren't touching, nor will they. I did drive it around the block today. Come to find out the trans I got for it is VERY bad. :-( such a bummer. I'll get a replacement transmission before the week and give it another shot.

Thanks for the compliments guys! John, you are going to hell. j/k! Your help certainly was very usefull and I dont think I could have gone through this swap as smoothly as I did without it. But in my defence, I bet you i'll go faster then 98 mph in the 1/4! :lol:
