Title: is there any other drive shaft that will work ?????????
Post by: monstertruckr81 on February 14, 2007, 09:41:00 pm
i have a 81 k-5 blazer and it has a 6 in superlift and i keep eating u-joints i was wondering if theres a shaft out of a newer vehicle that might be a couple inches longer that i could use or if theres an aluminum shaft that would work

this is a very common and easily fixed problem. all you have to do is find a good driveshaft shop and have them lengthen your driveshaft. i know of one around me called atlanta driveline and they charge around a hundred bucks to lengthen a driveshaft. check around and you should be able to find one. hope this helps.

Here's a link to an awful good business that might have an answer for you-
edit- I wanted to add- maybe you just need to add shims to your driveline to compensate for the lift.
