GLHS,
How do the custom CV joint and 1410 joint do? Where would I find a CV Joint to fit the 1410 yoke?

Any custom driveshaft shop should be able to build what you need. I wound up with an extended length slip yoke, with extended clearance length for my 4 inch lift. No binding issues even when extended.
My original one was too short, and completely worn out, thus the need for a complete shaft.

Shaft completely new cost $230.

That is incorrect. I should have said way negative.
I just wanted something stronger for racing. A 1410 series yoke has a wider range of flexibility. Don't recall now if the 1350 cv has more range than the stocker.
