i just creamed myself. you should paint your driveshaft black so it disappears a little bit. thats quite an angle on that thing...

you could paint it like a barbers pole and when you drove down the street it would make people dizzy. Haha yea it would look cool if you got the military sorta stencils and did it at random spots along the shaft. Could they powdercoat the shaft? I guess you could use that spray on bedliner or undercoat

just went out there and measured for you in the damn dark lol...looks to be just about 8'0.5 so it sits about 1/2" to a full inch higher than before lol

matt- im gonna have to pass on the barber shop thing lol and im gonna paint it semi gloss black and leave the cummins letters metal/silver the color of the shafts so you can see it...its not gonna be in random spots...same lengnth down..just in different spots AROUND the shaft so you can see it when it turns..

i still think you should paint blue, then mask off the letters and paint the shaft black so you'd have blue letters
