hey i need a driive shaft beacause my 85 fb 12 a has a bad u joint in the front i didnt know if any body had any lying aroud they would like to sell please contact me

 

me i have three dont know the price

 

look on some online used car part directories. i found one for 25 bucks a couple of months ago

 

I was actually wondering if anyone makes a carbon fibre drive shaft... I'm triing to reduce all rotational mass to a minimum. Wanna get my revvs up a bit higher.

 

if you want a lightweight driveshaft, mazdatrix sells one. if you're close to ohio, i have three and i'd be willing to sell you one. you could pick it up or i'd ship it to you.

 

Last summer the shaft in my 83 started clunking, so I installed my spare shaft, and noticed that it's a little wobbly too. Next time I'll use a $225 shaft from mazdatrix.

 

I had one made, with replaceable ends, for far less.

 

Check and see if you have a company called DriveLine Services in your area. They are Nationwide and Build Custom Drive Shafts.
I had them make a Drive Shaft for my 84GSL and other RX's they used Yokes Front and Rear for a Chrysler 400. No way to break those puppies.
I can slam all gears to 4th and in 5th I hit 140 easy with no Vibes anywhere.
They also give you a yearly rebalance if needed @ no charge ie Lifetime Waranty.
3 out of my 6-1st Gens have had this upgrade.
Only have the 84 left but all new in and out.
I found the reciepts for the all the cars done and the most I paid was $255.00 on 4-23-05 which is for the RX I drive now.
I looked into the MazdaTrix one and that is the Route I would have gone if I did not know about DriveLine.
Have Fun Go-In Round & Round!
