Here's something that to me actually makes tons of sense, guess they'll get me in the end.

Just call me Dennis.

I'm starting to feel the same way right about now. I had to have a driveshaft built for the BURB earlier this week because I twisted mine. This was a 3 1/2" steel .086 wall shaft that they said you will never hurt, well I twisted it. That set me back $427 to have a new shaft built(4 1/2" aluminum this time which is what I SHOULD have gotten the 1st go round). And today my lift pump quits working, so that is going to cost me $110+ shipping for a replacement motor. It wouldn't be ab ig deal except I spent the extra money to buy a pump rated for 40,000 hours, and I doubt I have more than 1500 hours on it in 45,000 miles.

Hey Ferm, if it will make you feel better, I've got over $1000 in my front driveshaft assembly( 2 piece shaft, 1410 yokes and solid joints, fabricated mid bearing assembly) for my buggy and all its doing right now is collecting dust

Just bummed that I was supposed to have a bullet proof shaft, and I twisted it. I hope this aluminum shaft is what he promised me it would be. If a 5 inch .063 walled stock shaft holds up at 71 inches, then at 53 inches a 4 1/2" .115 walled shaft SHOULD do the trick. But it was like pissing away $427 since I had ALREADY paid to have a bullet proof shaft built. And a 40,000 hour pump failing at a fraction of it's rated life was just icing on the cake. Oh well, gotta pay to play.
