I think there is a drive shaft company in Alsip called Chicago DriveLine ( I think thats the name). Has anyone dealt with them? Can they make aluminum drive shafts?

Just a thought?

It would be something that someone has to look into.

Nope, never dealt with them.

Why do you want to go Aluminum? It'll be costly.

It would save weight.

Summit and Jegs sells them for the Mustangs. $160-$175

Well duh!! Why not just go carbon fiber then.

What you need to figure out is whether or not the money you'll spend for a custom driveshaft (or rear half shafts) at this point is worth the weight savings.

My guess is that it's not.

I would be more interested in beefed-up U joints.
