| If all else fails, my private little gold mine of a salvage yard has several.
What's a good price? I could grab one and meet you somewhere.

A good price is whatever it will take to get it to me... lol Nah, all kidding aside, it would have to be under 100, because for 125 I can just have mine shortened. It has to be from a car which originally came with a 4l60e/700r4 and the 8.5" rear. Thanks man, text me if anything. | |

| No problem. Here's one: 88 or 89 9c1. 350tbi, 700r4, 8.5" posi, 342 gears, missing the green silicon hoses heh heh heh.... There's probably a few d-shafts already pulled up in the garage too. For the hell of it I'll get a price tomorrow. | |

| Hey Guys, sorry I wasn't able to get back to you yesterday but I didn't get in till real late.
I can get the drive shafts for $40 each. I've never bought one before. Is that a good price?

^If not rotted then I'd be comfy with 40 bucks on that! But just to be sure I need it, there is a diff. between drive shaft length on 7.5" rears and 8.5" rears correct? I remember someone mentioned it before. | |

Nah, I don't do texting. I'm sorry, but there's been a change of plans. After further consideration, I think it would be best if you came here and looked at the part(s) yourself before they're purchased. That way there's no possibilities of let-downs or disappointment for either of us. . | |

| Decent hike for me as well. I appreciate you doing the leg work, and if I were to meet you half way or something it would be no biggie, but let me see if I can track one down locally first. I will be in touch. Thanks | |
