47rh output shafts for a 4x4 tranny?

To my knowledge nobody makes them.... I have found a few that want them, and might be able to get someone to make them.

My question is......

Is there a need for them? If I said there could be some made.... does anybody want one.


If this is in the wrong spot or against the rules.... I apologize and please feel free to delete it.

Did something similar to this get deleted off of TDR? I replied to that one but can't find it now...

Yes it was deleted.

I posted in the 'technical' forums (competition/pulling) and he deleted it. I guess I will have to try to figure how this 'group buy' rule works over there. You are only allowed to post once about it... in a certain spot. Not allowed to reference it from another post..... all sorts of red tape so people dont get hurt feelings.

Thus far.... I cannot even get an answer on how many posts were made before deletion.

Not like I am trying to turn a buck.... just getting the word out that ONE run will be made.. the shafts will be about 500 plus freight.

The stuff the shafts are being made of is not being disclosed.


Its the same stuff the DTT shafts are made from..... if that makes a difference.

If you're certain you're using the same material, then I'd be interested, depending on manufacturer. Have you gone and gotten quotes yet? I'd be interested in billet 300M tool steel...

300M tool steel is weaker than these shafts are.

He doesn't use 8620 or 9310 either.

From what I gathered from him listening in at DDP his shafts have some 'stretch' to them. They will torque and bend back.... to a point.

They are going to be stout. He is the best that I know of.

Finding less costly shaft will be hard to do too. NOBODY makes these. Haven't ever made them to my knowledge. I will have to send him a good shaft and and overdrive unit for fitment.

I am also not making anything off this either. (Should have at least gotten my own shaft paid for huh? lol)
