High angle driveline 208 slip yoke cv's

[scottsdale86]

Has anyone used one of these before? http://www.highangledriveline.com/images/1350cv/208-1350cv1.jpg
I have a 1986 K10 SWB with a 4' lift on 35's and a 700r4/208 combo with 10 bolts and lockers at both ends. Geared to 4.10's and has aftermarket shafts in the front and rear. Just looking for some more strength and keep it close to factoryish. I just plan on doing mild fire trails and getting out to my favorite shooting spot with this truck. Dont plan on wheeling it too hard. Figured this would be the way to go.

Are you currently having any vibration issues with your current driveshaft? If not then there isn't a need for the CV shaft especially given the use of your rig.

 

[scottsdale86]

No but i need to lengthen it a bit and since i was doing so i figured i would step up the strength while i am at it.

I've had one on mine for the last 5 years. I put it in at the same time I swapped in a 14 bolt, so it was just a matter of pointing the pinion into the driveshaft and welding the new spring perches in place. I don't wheel mine very hard, but didn't want to have to worry about the driveshaft at all. Overall I'm very happy with it.

I have one in my 88 Blazer, installed it when I installed the 14 bolT, very happy with it also, customer service, (JESSE) second to none!

exactly, unless you have $1100 you want to throw away

That shaft is $1100?

 

[K85 Octane]

no.

 

[scottsdale86]

He said they start around $400. I havent a clue where $1100 came from unless he's talking about both shafts.

Cost me about $500 shipped to Hawaii.
