Looking for a shop to make a driveshaft for me.
I have a 5.0/t-5 swapped 84 BMW e30. I have tried United Driveline in Albany, but looking for other options. I have the t-5 driveshaft and the OE bmw shaft.
Any ideas?

just tell them you want a drive shaft made and they will tell you what to measure then get your measurement and go in and say "here's my measurement" and "I want this on one end ,and this on the other"
driveline specialties in pits. will be the closest to you.
