FMS FJ40 Installing hardened steel drive shafts.

[BigBaja]

Since the front drive shaft would probably be ok using JB, I still added a set of metal drive shafts from Injora that fit, so much modifying was done because all the drive shaft connections had to be enlarged the pin that attached the drive shafts had to be made thinner,
I chucked it in a cordless drill,& at the same time used a dremel with the sanding drum, it worked. Not looking forward to when the back wheel shafts go bad like the front did!!!!

Do you have a link to these? Are they longer than stock? I'm going to need some longer driveshafts for my Atlas build.

Sorry it took so long!!
