another vote for tom woods, had a vibration issue in the front end a year or so after having my front shaft built, didnt know if it was the shaft or not, took it in, they checked all the joints, greased and ballanced it no questions asked, for free, loaded me up with a couple hats and stickers and sent me on my way, the customer service alone was worth it, very nice guys, they know their stuff

I second the customer service i was treated the same way when buying a rear drive shaft

Another tom woods vote. His website has simple 1-2-3 instructions on how to measure your application, then he build exactly what you need. Any questions call and they can answer any question you could ever dream up. He would be my first choice

so it's 5 for tomwoods and 0 for anyone else, uh i wonder where you should go :)

Gaylon's in Lehi has a very nice machine for very accurate Driveline balancing. Six States in Orem has a balancing machine that is about 1/4th the cost of Gaylon's. Six States built my front CV Driveshaft but I am going to have to bring it by Gaylon's to get it checked for accurate balancing. The better machine for accurate driveline balancing would get my vote.

I had Gaylons build me one years ago, and it was great and affordable, that said Ive had Tom Woods build me 4 driveshaft so far and all have been awesome, and Im getting ready to order another tommoro for the project wife Jeep (WJ).

I live not far from tom woods so if you needed some one to pick up or drop of a drive shaft i can, if you meet me at my work in salt lake, if you go that direction

Well I called around to all the recommended driveline shops plus a few others more than half of them didnt give me the time of day over the phone and seemed put off that i asked about pricing. I ended up going with Slyco they were very helpful over the phone and although not the cheapest the conversation on the phone is what sold me with them. I picked up the driveshaft from them this morning and everything looks great.....

As far as Tom woods goes they wouldnt give me a price range without looking at the drive shaft first all I was after was really a worse case scenario and the guy seemed really arrogant and talked to me like i was reatarded..........Not impressed
