Used drive-shaft? 200 1993

I have a mechanic, Glasgow in Saint Paul, looking for a used drive-shaft for the old wagon.

Anyone in the Twin Cities have a line on one? If so, please send me a note or call me at 651 283 1098.

It's an automatic.

He'll probably be able to get one by morning, but I'm checking to see if I can speed that up.

Why does it need a driveshaft? Unless there is damage to one of the two main pieces, you are probably better off refreshing the one that you have (there's no guarantee that the u-joints, center support bearing and associated rubber and hardware are any better than what you have).

Depending on your mechanic, it might be cheaper to take the assembly to a shop that specializes in driveline stuff, getting it refreshed an rebalanced and then bringing it back to your mechanic to install it.

Good luck!
