Does anyone have a front drive axle shaft for a '93 Hijet. I'm talking about the driveshaft that runs from the transfer case to the front differential. Mine has a bend in it from hitting somethnig? Email me direct at jrobert@kmts.ca if you can help out.
Thought about that but figured it would be cheaper to get a used one. Also wouldn't be able to drive the truck for a week. It's my daily driver.
seems to me that if it's bent you can't drive it anyway. i've had a drive shaft rebuilt and balanced in just a few hours. you should call around. i'd much rather have a fresh drive shaft than buying one that may also have issues.
Depending on hows it's mounted you might be able to run with it removed if neccesary while being rebuilt.
I can disconnect if from the front but on the transfer case side when you remove the shaft oil runs out.
Where I live (small town) no one does driveshafts so it has to be sent out so I won't see it for a week. I can drive it but only in 2wd. I don't notice a thing untill I put it into 4WD at speeds higher than 30kph then a vibraton starts.
Try calling the dealer you bought it from?? 99.9% of dealers "claim" they have parts either "in stock" or easily accessible.
