HELP! 3500 GMC sierra driveshaft

Sparktrician · Nov 16, 2012

Does anyone know of a parts yard in ohio that may have a driveshaft for a '08 GMC (duramax & allison) 161.5" WB. Thanks!

Check with some of your nearest parts yards, if they don't have what you need, most larger operations have contacts with parts yards all over, even out of state. If anyone has one, they can ship it to the yard locally. It has been a few years since I had anything shipped in, but they used to not charge very much for shipping.
I don't know how large a city you live in/near, but many cities of any size have shops that do drive line repairs and they can build a drive shaft, probably for a lot less than a new one would cost.

Yes....I figured that out! It is not to bad to have a new yoke welded on, and replace the other universals.....thanks!

We have a shop about 10 or 12 miles from me that can probably make you a new driveshaft. Hal
