I had Ted Schumacher make me up a completely new driveshaft for my
TR-8. The driveshaft developed a terrible vibration and simply
had to be replaced. NEW driveshafts if you can find them run $400
or so. Ted's driveshaft which uses conventional U-joints (from a TR-6)
cost me about $180 with the shipping.
