Being an extended cab. Would a 4dr 5.5ft bed have the same length shaft?

Hmmm. I would be double checking everything else. I have a hard time believe "too much torque" broke that driveshaft.

Crazy.




I just got a new driveshaft from shaftmasters. These are brand new driveshafts for around 400 bucks. However, I've developed a common clunk, apparently the splines that go into the transfercase are not coated like they used to be.


I'd go the junk yard route, see if you can manage to change the "nonserviceable" U-Joints before you replace it.

I was pulling a camper out of my driveway and I stopped to check my mirrors and went to go again and my I heard a loud bang and my tuck kinda bounced lol but there not cheap lol. I'm going to Goto advanced and see what they can do. It's an essential part so I don't want to Goto a scrapyard for it.
