Paid $300 to get front and rear shaft extended and balanced for my MQpatrol in brisbane. I think they r having a go at u

[cutzook]

pay nothing and it spins up just as good

Are the unis the same front and rear.??

If so I would get an other rear shaft and have it shortened. I don’t know if you need to have it balanced.

The rear shafts tend to be bigger and stronger.

Berco are pretty exxy, try this mob in Woggalong, they are pretty good.

If you take it to a half decent place they wont need to balance a front shaft as you really won't need to use it at speed.
Having said that I had my hilux past 100kmh on frazer island with my extended non-balanced shaft with no vibration or anything...

mine cost about 35$ square RHS there are some threads on them on here, nice cheap alternative as long as u can weld or no someone who can...
