Front propshaft
#11
Bill really set me up! First he ordered the necessary parts to build me a front propshaft, found out one necessary part was now made in china he said "hell, no! " sent that crap back and modified a 'Merican part to my vehicles specs! All I have to say is he has me for life!
He is going to to be selling these, I am the first with this design, it is fully grease able. Plan on installing this and replacing my front wheel bearings as well this weekend.

The pinion flange looks like a spicer piece.. Not sure on the double cardan end.. and whats the deal with that big open hole in the side of it?

Ok, had some trouble installing this, but did get it installed. I have a vibration that starts under load at 30 mph. The center diff side is the one that is giving me the trouble. Looks like it is not sitting completely flush when the bolts are tight. I am beginning to suspect it is the paint on the mating surfaces is causing this. Any thoughts?

Hmm Pic? does the flange mate with the transfer case flange? Most of them have a small ridge that goes into the center of the transfer case flange.

Way ahead of you Jake
Removed it again. Here is what I am talking about:
Other side (note there is not as much paint, this side mated just fine)
Comparison of both Center diff connections, old and new. There is also the flange nut on the center diff but cannot confirm if the nut is causing the gap.

Hmmm. I always file the mating surfaces to begin with both T-case and drive shaft.
Do that and then try to get it to sit flat without bolting it down
Let me go look at the DC shaft spacer piece I have on the back porch
Ok good sir found some pics on my phone from when I was comparing a woods to a gbr.. The one on the left is the woods I have on the truck now the gbr on the right actually has a spacer that mates to the t-case that looks exactly like the woods one... It MIGHT be hitting the output shaft nut
