Re: 1350 Drive Shaft

So here is a little update to the D/S search. I mentioned that I was talking to a local D/S re/builder. I got all my measurements and operating angles over to them but they said they couldn't make the double cardan front shaft because my front operating angle was "extreme" it's 17 degrees. They stated I should look at other D/S builders. Ok, so I called Tom Woods and spoke with them about building an "extreme" angle double cardan 1350 front shaft. They said "17 degrees is not extreme and just order a normal from CV shaft" So hhmm...what is that all about. I'm not a driveshaft builder so I'm relying on experienced people to help me out with the right parts. Any input from the D/S veterans here?
