$1700 for a shaft is the shaft. You can have one made locally for $250-$400

YUP!!! you and splash got it right...if you can't fix it don't buy it. If you refuse to do research you'll get ripped.

What idiot would live 100 miles from a tranny shop?

If I lived that far from a car repair shop I would not own a car. And if I lived 100 miles from a truck mount repair guy I woulg go out and buy 5 Ninjas a say f**koff to any truck mount.

Remember a truck mount is like a Harley if you can't fix it yourself DO NOT BUY ONE!

Here's an example for you to follow. YOu are 100 miles from the nearest transmission shop and your tranny goes.
So you take your truck to the one and only transmission shop within 100 miles and they put the truck up on the hoist and have to fix it 4 times for you before your truck runs right and in the end they decide the hell with it they can't figure it out after swapping out every moving part on the driveline and still can't get it to run right so they decide to throw in a new transmission. And when you do get it back you find out that they turned down the trottle on your truck so it doesn't have the power it is supposed to have just in case they really didn't find the problem so it won't happen again. Now you get the bill and it is $7000. Oh and by the way they had the truck for a month for all but 3 jobs. It only did three jobs because it broke down after each job.

Don't forget that the closest transmission shop is 100 miles away and you don't have another truck to use.

Now what the hell would you have done?

Look corn-hole-driver the reason you don't trust people is because you are not trustworthy yourself.

To solve your problem look inward not outward.
