Just got some action from Santa...

Custom shaft back from South Bay Driveline in San Jose, CA:
   

Closeup of Chevy U-joint:
   

Long section of shaft:
   

Short half of shaft:
   

The owner, Steve is pretty awesome, we talked about the diffrent options but I decided to swap out the center joint with a chevy setup (gotta call him back to verify actiual application before I post it here) for replaceable u-joint due to the splines on my donor being shot...he can also modify a good splined section for early Ford style/size u-joint. I am also curious to see how the E46 giubos from RevShift work out for the large pattern (110mm) flex discs...
