Just wanted to say THANKS to Bill at Bill's Englewood Drive Shaft for all the years that he has been providing members here with helpful advice, good customer service and, of course, stellar drive shafts!

So ....show some love for one of our favorite vendors and stick a Bill's Englewood Drive Shaft sticker on your shaft! Many different colors and sizes to choose from, too, including hot pink and a soon to be announced atrocious custom color!

Where do we get those, what are the colors, and how much $? Bill did a great job on my rear shaft.

Ask Bill about the colors. The cost is nothing.

I had to use the small ones on my set up, so you may be in the same boat with your Toy. I can have LaDawn grab some for you Monday and at least get them into the north end of Denver if that saves you some driving/time.

What he had when I was there yesterday:

Red, black, yellow and hot pink. I imagine there are a few more colors...Let me know so I can let LaDawn know. She is only about 2-3 blocks away from Bill's shop every Monday AM...

Hey I've always heard that I should get a Tom Wood's driveshaft (when I get my CV driveshaft for the rear). First I've heard of Bill's. Judging by the responses I should give him a shot huh??

Nice avatar, John! I wish that they had the "can't beat my shaft" stickers in a size that would fit on my Jeep. Love my Bill's double-cardan shaft! He's an awesome guy!

I spoke with him about a one piece drive shaft for my Toyota. Very helpful and insightful guy... Now I've just got to bite the bullet. If it's not broke don't fix it right? Or should I just go ahead and do it? Comments?

Thanks Bill! will always be coming back! my driveshaft took a BEATING on Carnage Canyon last weekend, BUT it looks like nothing but surface scratches since you went ahead and beefed it up with new tube on top of all the other work you did! THANKS AGAIN!

I will def. rock a sticker, hope theres a green one!

Fix it before it breaks is my theory - that's why we put a double cardan rear in mine almost right away - smoothed everything right out, too! He's really awesome, and I was surprised at how affordable!

YES! Bill is local and a complete badass! He does great work!

X2!!!!! I needed a pair of Dana 60 u-bolts so I went down to Bill's shop to buy a pair. We ended up BSing for about 40 minutes. And he just gave me the u-bolts. When everything is back together Bill I'll be heading your way.

Just called Bill. He is about $100 less than the Internet for my front drive shaft. Will be running by there probably tomorrow to get measured. :thumb:

I was talking to him about the Rover drive shafts and he mentioned that to me, too. He is generally less expensive than most internet places, has stellar customer service, and does extremely good work. He also gives folk on the forum a discount, which was probably included in the price he quoited you if you mentioned Front Range 4x4 or my name.

I went to Bill's this last week for my Land Rover DII Front DS. They did a awesome job and worked with me on the price. I also over paid with cash, Was in a rush to pick up more parts and gave the guy all my money (cash). He chased me out to the parking lot to give my change.

Good work , Good People.

Bill's is the only place to go!

Didn't get them directly from him but my lift installer did...am sure I paid a nice markup. They sure seem smooth and I ended up getting a 1310 for the front and a bigger 1350 for the rear (2012 JK). Yeah, that didn't sound good. Anyway, I'll go in to make sure things look good, and say Hi.
