88MK7man- Would your friend be interested in losing another P71 aluminum shaft?

I'm sure I could. I have friends who own 3 different security companies in the Sacramento area and they all have parts P71's.. lol

Two things:
1) I may be interested, so do you have any more and how much $$ to get one to 76148?
2) what is the length of that DS?

Thanks

[88MK7Man]

I would have to see how much it weighs. I know mine isn't too heavy. I'm not sure how long they are.. I just took it to the driveline shop and told them to make it 58.5" from flange to seal and they did it. lol

[W.V. Kelly]

IIRC you'll save about 9 pounds.

Armond, I'm sure you've already checked but your flange to seal distance might be different.

Nope.
The truck 4R70W and the Lincoln AOD are exactly the same length. All I needed was to swap the correct 4R70W yoke onto my driveshaft.
I currently have a one piece driveshaft. Had to ditch the double u-joint quite a while back.
Thought an aluminum one would be more appropiate for the speeds the car will see.

On this DS I just got from OIL INJECTED, it is, 60.5 from in to end. I meassure 55.5 from butt end to where the u-joint attaches at the other end.

Also it weighs about 16 lbs according to USPS metered wieght.

Seeing how i'm practically right here... I'm willing to pick it up in person. That is once all the details are taken care of.

[Oil_Injected]

Would he be wanting to lose about 10 of them?

[chestnut101]

how much for a bolt in?

[Oil_Injected]

Removes the spicer joint, reduces weight and is much much stronger than the origional.

Aluminum before being shortened.



Mark 7 shaft, just as it came out of the car.

Depends on how much I can get the shaft for. I just sent out 2 this week at $300 shipped.

If anyone is interested in part numbers or specs, please PM me and I will pass on all the info I have on how to build your own.

First step is to look in the yellow pages for a driveline specialist. I learned that a machine shop is not a driveline specialist.

[chestnut101]

Looking forward to getting the product on the car.

I might be interested in one after the holidays for my new baby.

[1stiski]

Look what I received from the post girl today,, she said "my, you have a large package, where should I put it" Smart ass thinking came to mind, but yeah, Oil_Injected., thanks for the goodie.
I like the "POLICE" stamp.
