I got a T. Woods and haven't had any issues. Balanced well and ships fast. Price is right and customer service is good. Would recommend + you get an "I Got a Woody" sticker...can't beat that.

For the money of a Tom Woods shaft I would rather use one from Bill Davis at Great Basins Rover in Salt Lake City, much stronger and no where near the returns and balance issues that Tom Woods has had over the last 2 years.

I have an '04 with 40k miles on it; putting together a list of preventative maintenance items.
Thoughts on a new drive shaft?
I know about the Atlantic British variant; thoughts on there offering?

Cheers, Doug

Nothing to think about, my first drive shaft failed at around 37,000 miles and G.B.R's has by far the best replacement in both a standard and H.D. versions.
