Dodge parts hookup?

[Jose]

My cousin broke the driveshaft on his 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 crew cab and looking for a replacement. It's a one piece drive shaft. Hope somebody can help me out in a deal.

Try Baron. He sells used parts.

Or, depending on what exactly broke, you might look into getting it fixed. I know I had a driveshaft shot work on my old Bronco driveshaft and they did a great job for less than buying a replacement.

I forget the name of the place but it is in Irving. They primarily do heavy duty stuff, but had mine in and out in no time. I will see if I can locate the place.

Call and ask for the driveshaft shop.

Mine came back looking brand new, re-balanced, and with a warranty. This was like 3 years ago.

I can get a used one, but I would rather steer you to a rebuilt or new one. Those things create havoc when they come apart

I've used them before, several times, and they've always done a great job.

I told my cousin about Driveshaft King and he had called them up. They quoted him a price of $350 for a rebuilt one and I think this is the best option. I didn't realize they cost that much, even comparing them to what it costs for my truck as well.

Edited the post as I was posting from my phone (plus I've been drinking) and what I said earlier didn't make any sense.

Haha, I thought you were directing that towards Jose.

Nope. Part of my frustration for Dodge grows every time I turn the key.

That's a LOT more than I paid. I don't think any of the work I've had done ever cost more than $150, but then again, I haven't needed any of that type of work done in 15 years.

Driveshaft shit has gone through the roof. Just one quick example, take a look at Mustang aluminum driveshafts. You used to be about to get a fox one new for $130ish in the late '90's, now they're $300.

Im hoarding a pair of those.

Also, the dodge one piece is aluminum, IIRC.

Didn't aluminum prices go through the roof about 6 or 7 years ago? I seem to remember an almost overnight catalyst. And of course most modern cars are utilizing a lot of aluminum to make up for all the added electronics weight. I'd really like to put an aluminum 1 piece DS in my '13, but those fuckers are like $700.

OK that would make sense and explain why the driveshaft is so fucking expensive. I mentioned to him the same thing about when I bought one for my Mustang it was like $175 or so (I think). Didn't realize they had gone up in price.
