Is there any place other than Mopar to get a new intermediate shaft ? Mopar/dealers are very pricey wanting over $300 for one.

Is the shaft actually broken or the CVs just bad? Can rebuild the CVS for under 70 bucks. Just need a pair of snap ring pliers.Is there any place other than Mopar to get a new intermediate shaft ? Mopar/dealers are very pricey wanting over $300 for one.
Is it the front propeller shaft that you refer to as the "intermediate shaft"?Is there any place other than Mopar to get a new intermediate shaft ? Mopar/dealers are very pricey wanting over $300 for one.
Please don't confuse our American cousins talking about prop shafts; it may be what we (& probably most other English speaking nations) call them but they are drive shafts across the Pond. Here we are talking about axle shafts, i.e. 1/2-shafts to you & I. It's just that the RH one on a KJ is a 2-piece affair, not that it's immediately obvious - & I've just changed mine.Is it the front propeller shaft that you refer to as the "intermediate shaft"?

Update on this, as I didn't realize you were overseas! If you search eBay, you can find the shaft rebuild kits for very reasonable prices. There are plenty of u-tube videos that show the process as well. Good luck!Many places in town should be able to rebuild for you for half that price. Usually a drive shaft/suspension shop. St stated above it is possible to rebuild your self but you may need extra tools like big hammers!
If you really want to discuss this my wife has a Doctorate in Linguistics', she was taught English by a very bad teacher using what she called The Real EnglishDidn't someone once refer to "2 countries, separated by a common language"? Trouble is there are far more players now - all believing they speak English (just look at the choices when, say, setting up a computer.) Still say the big difference is between the US & the rest of the (English speaking) world when it comes to car parts & tools.
