Looking to upgrade and want to get something I wont be afraid of breaking. Do they make Billet ends and chromoly tubing, bigger U-joints etc? I am running a Tremec TKO with the big yoke and 26 spline input back to a solid axle 8.8. I have an 03 Cobra pinion flange that I can use if necessary. What say you?

I have an aluminum drive shaft from Quarter Master that has forged aluminum yokes and Heavy Duty U joints. The hole thing is over-sized but lighter then a conventional steel driveshaft. The thing is a piece of art. I think Gordon sells Quarter Master Products.

Just remember that on IRS cars it won't matter but on solid axle cars (I see you are 5-link) the choice of U-joints and shaft dia could result in bind at the limits of axle travel.
