| Would a 2 piece driveshaft (hanger bearing) stay in a truck with slicks? I'm wanting to get Laura some slicks for the Chevy Dakota. I just don't want to put her in something that won't hold up. It has a hanger bearing out of an 85 3/4 ton suburban. |

| Just want to know if it would hold up to something in the 7.50-8.00 range. It is extended cab with a long bed I know a 76" long drive shaft won't stay. I scattered the the first trans. and shaft the first day it was running. |

| lester , i use to have a 79 ford truck with a 460 .. it was a long wheel base truck i used as a daily driver .. it had a 2 piece shaft in it .. the truck ran 7.30's with bf goodrich street tires .. but that pile would not keep a shaft in it .. but you are also looking at a thousand or 2 thousand pds lighter .. but the slicks also will be a factor also ..

| One long well balanced driveshaft is the way to go. A two pice is just to dangerous if it broke in the right spot it could do some serious damage to anyone or anything nearby |
