Front driveshaft rebuildable?
Is the forward end of the front driveshaft rebuildable? This was causing my vibration upon acceleration, and the shop says it's not rebuildable and has to be replaced at a cost of $854. Seems kind of crazy that a person would have to replace the whole shaft Everytime the rubber wears out.
out. Is this correct or can the rubber be replaced?
Thanks

I'm not sure but it may help others answer if you're a little more specific with your post. 4.7's were mated to entirely different transmissions than the 5.2 or 5.9 and there were also multiple transfer case options. All of these can change overall length and thus have a different driveshaft. So yours could be a completely different shaft than what's in my Durango, for example

It is rebuildable. Here is the part. Look for a new mechanic too. Shops tell you things they don't want to do are 'not possible' so they just get more money quicker selling you more than you need. Since you are not doing this yourself though, you're at their (lack of) mercy. If there is a driveshaft shop in your town, and you pull the shaft and hand it to them to fix, for sure it will be less than $800+.
