Default New driveshaft time

Hey everyone,
Purchasing a new driveshaft. Putting in my CDL linkage this weekend and realized that my front prop shaft only has one grease fitting! I don't think I want to rebuild it... I'd rather just get a new one and throw it on.

Any recommendations of where to get the best one? I was looking at this one:

New Front Land Rover Discovery 2 CV Driveshaft Cardon Heavy Dutty Greasable New | eBay

and this one

Land Rover Discovery CV Front Drive Shaft '99 '04 | eBay

Looks like the main difference is one uses spicer u-joints and the other uses neapco.

Call Tom Woods, can't go wrong. He had one the next day when I was in Moab last month... Stronger, bigger, everything is greasable, and all the zerks are on the same side, so you don't have to grease one, roll the wheels, grease another.

I like the $300 on best because he uses Spicer u-joints and it looks heavier. I'm think of one myself. I'm still running on the original front shaft with non-greasable u-joints.

I bought a Dynamic Drive Line one upon the recommendation of one of the users here, lr2001silver. It came in good time, and has served me well so far (150 miles worth). The other one looks good too, although I am not sure if anyone else can vouch for it the way lr2001silver was willing to do for Justin from DDL. Just my two cents.

I have plenty and sell them for $300 shipped to your door. I no longer have any affiliation with dynamic drive line. So if your in the market I can guarantee you a better product and Justin from dynamic is on board with me. Pm me if your interested and we can talk!

Yeah the ones LR2001 has are great, I highly recommend them!

Place your order through LR2001Silver, as he is the connection for the new shafts.
