Save your self a couple hundred bucks and get the Spyder Shaft.

I'm a huge fan of brenspeed, but in this case I have to throw my support at spydershaft. This is simply because I prefer a replacement pinion flange over an adapter. Adapters are sort of an afterthought, not a good design in my opinion.

If I read Brent's site correctly I believe it is a direct bolt in without an adapter. If I'm wrong please correct me. The 3.5 inch dia. is good for clearance.

The driveshaft shown in their picture would require either a 6 bolt to 4 bolt adapter or a 4 bolt pinion flange. It could be that the picture is just a generic example though, and not the actual driveshaft. If I didn't already have the Spydershaft I would inquire, but I love the driveshaft I have now.

I think you're right. I still like the idea of the 3.5" dia. I have the 4.00" dia. powerhouse one, clearance is close with after market shifter. My buddy has the spydershaft, and likes it as well.
