The front shaft is novaks, they had been telling me it would be out in 6 weeks for well over a year, but I finally got it :D The qualtiy looks good,but time will tell only thing I noted about it is that it is missing what I can olny assume would be oiling journals and that it uses a snap ring where the original did not

The rear shaft is a tera, came with decent instructions and all of the seals,shims, and bearings needed. Only complaint is that there was some surface rust on some of the parts (speedo gear spacers and the shafts itself). Only major diff is that the speedo gear section of the shaft is straight cut and has a plastic worm gear that slips over it to actuate the speedo

Nice write up Alec,
What was the price of the front shaft?

I wanna say $200 and change, but I don't remember exacty. I have never busted a front, but with the 5.3:1 in the tcases and the 440 going in sometime this year, thought it was better to be safe. :D
