Hi All
Quick update, 120 miles and extra 4 hours driving the shaft back over to, picking up from the drive line shop the new drive shaft is installed and works fine.
I'll have more details soon, some interesting finds and things to watch for in doing drive shaft replacements.
They just plain measured it wrong, so they cut off the simple end of the shaft shortened it rewelded and rebalanced it and it was ready to go. Guy said it is simple to fix when they are to long but no easy fix for to short.
Cheers Phil
