10mm Manual Input Shaft
What is the general consensus (besides upgrading to the 01+ torque tube) for replacing the input shaft on the 97-00 10mm torque tubes? Is there any way to make the 12mm input shaft work? I don't believe mine is bent, the end is just a little out of round from a failed bronze pilot bearing. Think it would be possible to have it welded and machined? Any idea if they are hardened?
Normally I would just upgrade to the 01+ torque tube but it just isn't in the budget right now.

12mm input shaft should work, its same lenght than 10mm shaft. You maybe need drill coupler hole abit bigger.
I use this input shaft in my -99, i have Hinson solid driveshaft.

Those ears can handle 12mm bolts. My car previous owner broke 10mm bolts in dyno when take 800hp. He drill 12mm bolts to stock -99 torquetube and take abit over 1000hp. When i buy car and feel vibration in torquetube. So we take off torquetube and driveshaft look like banana.
