Driveshaft shortening?

Do any of the sponsors do it? I will need one done in a few weeks.

?? How do you narrow a driveshaft??

Just playing, and figure you need one "Shortened" instead. If none of the sponsors can do it, I used Drive-Line Incorporated over in Clifton when I swapped the T5 into my car some years ago. They shortened my original d/s 3", and balanced it for around $100.

LOL. I'm retarded. Yes, I meant shortened. I know of that place and Mr. Driveshaft out in Farmingdale I think. I just thought I'd see if I can throw the $ towards a sponsor instead.
