Where's the recommended place to get ya tail shaft beefed up. Want to do a few drag runs soon and dont want 3" vent hole in the floor or petrol tank. Also whats the rough cost im looking at. In SA so even if ya have a built one for seconds ill have a look. Cheers

My hardy spicer is rated for 1000+hp and came with a 2yr warranty. 
Cost $1200 
Had no issues with it as yet.
Hammered 305s in 6-7wks so thinks its the business.

So that's everything done. Bearing/ balanced ect. I have a hardy's 10 mins from my house. No vibration isses

Hey Brad 

 

hardy spicer at regency park is the place to go ( we only have two tailshaft options in Adelaide ) but it’s built 1000hp shaft with bigger centre bearing and 1350 uni/yoke configurations new Front Tripod all ready to go are around $2000 all said and done ( that’s supply only no fitting ) 

 

not all built shafts are equal and theres varying levels of options 

 

have a look in my thread ive done x3 in the past three months for customers cars ;)

Bizkets, is your car still running man? I thought you were still off the road with the issues you been having for a while? :P

I recently got my driveshaft done at Phill from Final Drive.

 

All I know is I left the car there for the day, the drive shaft was upgrade to a Chrome poly tube I think and the center bearing replaced.

I have no idea what it is rated to, but I can sleep at night without having nightmares of said air vent in the floor pan.

All under a grand for me. maybe you should move to WA? ;)

That’s the problem @masda74 apples aren’t always apples when comparing products and prices 

 

sounds like you just got a re tube/sleeve which is common
