Re: 1 Piece driveshaft

My '62 Suburban (I've cosmetically changed it over to '61) was factory V8, Granny 4spd, 1pc driveshaft, with the slip-yoke built in to the driveshaft.

I converted to a 4spd OD manual trans, and had a new 1pc driveshaft built by a driveshaft shop.

My vibrations have more to do with worn shocks, worn rear suspension bushings and worn front suspension. I also lowered the truck a bit, and never got around the resetting the rear pinion angle, though it's probably only out by a degree or so.
