redsx13 is an unknown quantity at this point
Three words Driveshaftshop.com, that's the number one place for aftermarket half shafts and drive shafts for 240s, I'd love to see that project of yours.

Driveshaft shop is gonna be expensive tho. I honestly feel that you can sleeve the stock ones. If you notice at one end the cv joint comes apart and you can remove the bearings (I'm almost positive it's the outside joint) . There is an Alan screw that holds it together on the inside.

I'd cut the shaft, get a piece of round stock about the thickness of the shaft, cut to desired length, and weld in. Set it on a flat table tho to get it straight. Then sleeve it. If your welds are good it will hold. Much easier than a spacer, cheaper than a custom one/ones

Good luck,
Brandon
