Great thread as this could help me make my decision here in the near future. Good thing is adams is a 30 min drive from me if that.

With a Jeep that custom I would pick the shop closest to you, then arrange a date & time to sit down and tell them what you've got and see what they suggest...

I was very fortunate, one of the best guys in New England happens to live less than a half mile from my front door!

He specializes in custom drive shafts and I told him what I wanted and we came up with what I asked for, along with input/suggestions from him.

After having such a hands on experience I would never go to matthewd5@gmail.com ordering similar items in the future...

so there is a driveline place 5 miles from me but I just think that going with companies that have tried and true drivelines for JK's will be my best bet. I could go see them though and see what they have to offer. I now have something to do tomorrow lol.

I run a front Adams with absolutely no issues. There's many good brands. I do like the idea of custom. Assuming it might be cheaper too?

I have Coast front and rear for over two years and they performed well. But what i like the best is that when i broke the yoke on my rear driveline wheeling in some rocks, completely my fault. I mailed Coast my driveline and they didn't fix it they just mailed me a new. Great customer service I had my new driveline in about a week. Can't beat that but I agree with some of the other posts if you have a good local shop that would be the way to go.
