To be honest, I don't know exactly what it would cost, but these are
prices other people have given me, so I'm relaying them to you. The
lowest someone told me they paid was $80, but that seems incredibly
low to me. I guess $200 is more like the norm, aparrently.
I think someone locally that I race with got an aluminum driveshaft
made for like $250. I don't remember who or where. So, it pays to
look around. There's a lot of machine shops and stuff here in Rhode
Island and MA.
