True! Actually, sometimes our selections get limited to regular LR shops but when it comes to drive shafts, plenty around can make custom shafts. I guess as long as it can fit between the catalytic converters as heavy duty you want.

 

Yea I've got an aftermarket one on mine and I'm gonna order a replacement but I'm gonna have that one built so I'll always have a back up instead of being up **** creek without a paddle if it starts to fail. I'm hoping with the new magnaflow y pipe with the cats and heat shield and then having them ceramic coated, it will help keep the heat down

 

Good catch, mine looked similar at first glance. When we pulled it out, the UJs were almost completely eroded and it seemed like it was moments from creating a parts pile on the highway!

Good save.

 

Please post pics when you get them coated (along with what exactly you had done & how much) if you don't mind. I'm about 30 days away from a new magnaflow y pipe (got the P0420 & sometimes the P0430 codes) and I'm all about bulletproofing things so I don't have to ever worry about them again.

And that sounds like a really cool idea!

 

Well I had all my heat shields and both exhaust shields ceramic coated. Figured anything I can do to knock down the temps is worth every damn penny. I still grease everything like I'm supposed to but if I can knock it down a little more to keep the grease from melting, it's done it's job.

 

I ordered the magnaflow off of eBay for $574

 

According to the magnaflow website there are two that fit the Disco II's (at least my 2004). Which one (part #) did you go with?

 

I went with the 93689 part number. It's the standard one not the oem grade one.

 

Figured it would give a little more flow than the oem one
