    Anybody buy a remanufactured drive shaft?

    If so, where did you get it and are you happy with it? I bought a used one off ebay to use on my swap and a couple thousand miles later one of the u-joints is binding. I don't really want to go the used route again just in case.
    I found these guys http://driveshaftspecialist.com/Impo...FSMCQAodCh26tg. Anyone use them? I tried calling the toll free number and it seemed to be disconnected? (Not a good sign)
    Oh and my car is S52 with the ZF trans so I need an E36 M3 or 328i drive shaft.
    Thanks!

    I use the remans from Drive Line Services or those that Bimmerworld has.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      Yes...several.

            Glad to hear they are good to deal with. Thanks
            Just need to drop my exhaust and take some measurements since I don't have an E36 vin number to order the right driveshaft.
