Driveshaft Work?

Who knows a good place where I can get some driveshaft work done? I want to shorten another one for behind my GV unit. I don’t care if I need to send it somewhere I just want a shop who will do it right.

When I got the Gear Vendors went to a local place (2hrs away) and had them shorten a driveshaft for me. They didn’t have a large enough jig, or what have you, to hold the flange so they couldn’t properly balance it.

It always vibrated a bit it wasn’t bad until I threw on a 2” lift on the back. I compensated by lowering the transmission a bit, but I still may need to take the blocks out.

When I looked closer at the driveshaft I can see they didn’t phase it properly, the ears are off by a few degrees.
