My town's police would actually escort me around town in snowstorms while I drove my uncle's YJ and pulled people out /up hills. I was like 14 in a YJ with a 12" lift, 35's and locked front and rear.
To this day I still wonder how I'm like the only person on the planet to nuke 760 joints reliably on 33s. :dunce:
Why do you need two driveshafts to do that?
All the shafts I've ever made are done that way...except I used 1.75" x .25 wall in the middle. Just used the last few inches of OEM tube on both ends.
Wait - nevermind, I get it. 2" x .120 wall is probably not a good choice, especially for something that long. I'm just not a fan of the typical thin-wall tube they use for driveshafts. One dent and you're XXXXed.
Any idea how long it's gotta be? I'd check out this place:

I've used them before with great results. You can buy exactly the length you need of any size tube, and their selection is amazing. Pricing's really not bad too...especially compared to some of the numbers I've seen in this thread.
Or say XXXX it, for what you're doing...run a square tube shaft.
my god, that's terrible.
I'm wondering what is going to happen when I drive the M54A2 around town during snowstorms... assuming I get it finished before the snow melts. If not, I am hoping for massive flooding, and with this much snowpack will probably get it since Southbridge is in a river valley. In fact I'm like 300 feet from the river and thankfully about 50-60 feet above it.My town's police would actually escort me around town in snowstorms while I drove my uncle's YJ and pulled people out /up hills.

He built it before LCOG was the cool thing to do. And when non c clip 35's and disco 30's were the norm.
You'll be sitting in your lame ass cube at the same time as you did the day before...:twak:
as usual my back yard is available as a spare parts dumping ground, start a pile in your own corner. If my neighbors continue to be asshats the front yard will become available as a spare parts dumping ground as well.
that's why I'm not fixing anything important on my 98 too. The exhaust is dragging ass, like 2 inches off the ground, I'm gonna find some steel coathangars and attach it to something soon. I don't want to waste a hundred bucks on a new exhaust when I will want to get the axles/suspension in before doing the real exhaust overhaul.
Sweet. Manual focus? It might freeze the image a little more if you used flash but leave a ghost behind it. It might also be neat to dump more light into it and just use a faster shutter speed.
