I'm pretty sure Cincinnati Precision Machining will do it for you.. you can try them at 604-882-9252 but it's kind of a drive (almost in Langley).

They do excellent work though; I've had them do two flywheels for me and I was very impressed with the quality.

If you are wanting chromoly go with dennies. I will be using theirs for my shake down engine. There nitrous ready shafts are strong and fairly priced. Will be with my ls1 th400 too.

Dennies nitrous ready shafts just do a search. Prob not going to find a good chromoly d/s local. If you have the cash MARK WILLIAMS. I will be using a mark williams on the turbo engine.

like the title says .. IWE rear ends only .. "only" being the keyword here

by ur analogy .. if rearends have something to do with driveshafts, then driveshafts are have something to do with trannys and clutch's and motors too

hey lemme git maa engine rebeelt at IWE

just buggin ya man

the rear end bone is connected to the driveshaft bone ..
the driveshaft bone is connected to the tranny bone ..
the tranny bone is connected to the engine bone ..

either way .. its a done deal .. gettin my DS back today from drive products .. and FWIW i wouldnt take anything to IWE cuz i just hate Ians attitude ..
