our trucks are so light that you can't get enough traction to twist one in half
unless you try to light em up with 1000lbs in the bed

the C4 is aluminum, but I'm sure they could supply a steel version... I never even thought of using a stock driveshaft! Although I'd hate to hack up the perfectly good original shortbed driveshaft I have.. (my longbed one is long gone).
I will say that the original is a cold-rolled and welded shaft meant for under 200HP...so I'd have to behave myself probably. And that is unlikely to happen.
It does fit though! I tested it out. The amount of time I'd have into cleaning this thing... may be prohibitive as well. But good call out.
