Did some searching but didn't find anything on one for a Quad cab. Has anyone found someone that has made an aluminium drive shaft single OR two piece for a quad cab. Found a couple of places that say they can make one but does anyone already have one on a Quad cab that can handle some good HP? Thanks in advance for the help.

The only aftermarket driveshaft I have used was from Tom woods drive shaft. Was for a jeep jku. Never had an issue. He has a good rep among jeepers, so not sure what he has for the ram, but you might want to check him out.

Well as for right now I am just under 600HP at rear wheel. My next upgrades will put me at between 7 and 8 hundred. With the length of the truck, weight, 2 piece shaft, plus the HP with 10.5 drag radials I don't see it holding. and from what I saw underneath it is not an aluminium shaft. Yes I know steel would be stronger size for size. Convince me otherwise.

Right now I have a D-1SC PRO Charger w/8.5 lbs boost, 89mm Throttle Body, Detroit Trutrac with 4:10 gears
Hellwig rear sway bar, ATI Super Damper, HP Tuned 8 speed Trans, JBA Long tube headers
and true dual exhaust with super 40's, no cats or Resonators. All tuned on a dyno. Think thats it right now.
