Good driveshaft shop?
Anybody know of one in the area? Not looking for a carbon fiber 4" nitrous ready blah blah- really just looking for a steel DS with 1330's on each end.

Billy, I had Petes in Trenton cut the one for the Chevelle down, They did good work, guy was kinda a dick on the phone and somewhat in person. I dont know if they will make exactly what you want, but it may be worth a shot.

I have also heard that Mercer Spring does Drive Shafts too.

Feather-light suspension, Konis just couldn't hold. I'm so glad I took a look inside your showroom doors.

I used Petes years ago and the work was good. Turns out that I know the son of one of the owners now. I have met his father a few times, he is just kinda like that though. Not the most pleasant person to deal with, I think his brother works there primarily.
