    During my 13 years working at a foundry, one of our best machinists would take in DriveShaft Jobs. After he'd finished welding the U-Joint Ends onto the tube he'd spin-up his lathe to at least 3x the expected driveshaft rotation speed. Then he'd apply torch heat to "warp" the tube ever...

    Cool - Great price too! Did that include BALANCING the driveshaft or just the "retube"? If it included balancing, then you got a super-great price :shock:

    Congratz on the new bouncing baby truck! Glad you mentioned the back axle positioning in your OP.... I kinda though it looked like a little doggie with it's tail tucked so far under him that his butt was trying to pass his chin in a full run!!! As for disrespecting Bobbers.... I simply...
