mjotrainbrain Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Yesterday I attended an off-road event which included raffles and so forth after 5 hours of trail rides. It had been an awesome day already, which was made better when I won a $100 certificate to Tom Wood's for a driveshaft! Is this something worth buying? Even with $100 off, I will probably be paying at least $150-200 out of pocket, and I don't know that I can justify that. The only reason I can think of it actually being a worthwhile purchase is to do preventative-maintenance in order to avoid vibration from old age, but I don't even know if that would be an issue yet since my QX4 only has 130,000 miles. The other option is to find a Jeep guy who needs a driveshaft (already have a couple in mind) and see if they'll trade me for it. What do you guys think? Tom Wood's, or try to get some money to use elsewhere on the truck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleurys Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I would trade...I have seen axle shaft break on a pathfinder before the driveshaft does.... so I think you would be better in a trade... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPLORx4 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I would trade it. The Pathfinder isn't a rig that can easily be built into something that would need custom driveshafts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjotrainbrain Posted September 25, 2016 Author Share Posted September 25, 2016 Thanks guys. That's what I was thinking, especially since I've never even heard this isdue discussed before. Now to decide what to upgrade next... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
