We had DSI build a CV after we had everything dialed in.

Oh, and I'd avoid generics like "3-5" inch lift. For the extra 50 bucks it is at DSI by the time you mail order those ones out of the states, you get a shaft that fits your rig perfectly, and easy to sevice in town.

Are you looking at one of those supershort with shaft deals, and thats why you ask?

no.  I was just thinking that a cv driveshaft would fit on a supershort the same as a standard sye with a little less room for play.  But I wanted to make sure before i go ordering my parts.  I wanna get it right the first time and if that means spending a little more cash then owell.  Where is that company located, that u got the driveshaft made by?

Thx

A super short is almost 4 inches shorter then a standard SYE. The shafts definately dont fit between one another. They are the exact same shafts, just different lengths.

DSI is located right here in Calgary. Awsome guys to deal with, and they stand behind their work 100%.

If you take the turn in the middle of the hill to go to modern, instead of going down the service road right to modern, go straight through, up the hill. Past the first stop sign, DSI is just on the right.

You can look them up under Drive Systems Inc in the phone book.

hope that helps
