Seized a motor bearing in the CRT.5...and - 03.16.2008, 10:14 PM

totally bent the front drive shaft. Unfortunately I was at full speed down the back straight when the motor bearing seized. The car lurch forward and stopped quite quickly. The drive shaft was bent bad, but I don't think there was any other damage.

I have the RCM Extended Chassis kit and I'm pretty sure the front drive shaft is the same as the rear. Ofna only sells them as a F & R combo. Does anyone know if there is a properly sized drive shaft I can buy as a single? How about some cool aluminum or ti shafts?
