    Open drive line is the only way to go. Give Alex Gambino a call.
     
  7. Please answer me a dumb question, I have not heard the term "Open Driveline" before, can you please explain its meaning?

    An open driveline is the current, conventional style drive shaft, with two, or more u-joints. A closed driveline, or torque tube, has a single pivot tube, anchored to the back of the transmission case, solidly attached to the rear axle, with a drive shaft within that tube. The axle and drive shaft are essentially one unit, like a big swing arm.
     

  9. Ok, I got you.. Thanks for the clarity.
