If getting my driveshaft rebuilt by a machine shop is gonna be too expensive, and i dont find a driveshaft for my 83 GSL what driveshaft can i use in it's place? and if anyone has a driveshaft for me and i can afford the shipping i'll buy it.

 

Any 83 to 85 will work, If you have a manual trans.

 

yep manual tranny

 

Have any junkyards nearby? I had a drivetrain shop put two half-good driveshafts together. plus (i think) they rebuilt one of the u-joints. they charged $70 for all that. -not too shabby

 

i have a few, but your in ca. shipping will be pricey!!!

 

$70 sounds like a fair price i was quoted $300 canadian which is about 200 american by an Rotary shop here....gonna call some of the machine shops my uncles garage deals with and i'll ask my transmissions teacher at school if he knows anyone. Is there anything I can do to maybe strengthen the driveshaft or sumtin?
