Hi all,
It is time for new drive shafts for my 2dr 2012 JK. I know about Tom Woods but I thought someone said there was another company that made just as good shafts but less expensive. I can't remember who the other company is. So, does anyone have any other recommendations?
Thanks,
Shannon

Search Tattons driveshafts. AlKat just bought 2, I have one of theirs . Prices are usually less than Tom Woods, with the same quality.

There are two places in Peoria that make them, Fleetpride (formerly Midway Truck Parts) and Vachon's.

Re: New drive shafts?
Bills right, did i really say that out loud, I bought front and rear tatton drive shafts this summer and i'm very happy with them. Good quality and good prices. You can call him at 801-685-0056, ask for Curtis. He'll probably answer the phone it's a small shop. Bill also bought a rear shaft from them and as far as I know he's happy with it.
