Re: Lsvx-t

Well it was a gloriously frustrating day!!! I have been calling/emailing the driveshaft shop trying to get an update. Turns out the cv joint itself was backordered until mid to late August. So I did my best to not flip out and asked calmly if there was some other joint we could use without sacrificing performance. Well I didn't hear back for over a week so I assumed no. I finally pulled the trigger on making a custom shaft myself. Using some of the original shaft I was able to machine some bits to make this double cardan shaft you see below. I was so happy to have all the work done this morning only to get the email you see below as well. Happy days people!!! At least I will have a spare.

I still need to make a mount for the dash which I have made work an finish wiring a bit in. Hoping to be back on the streets this weekend all going well!!!
