Default Driveshaft spacers

Hi guys, I'm after some split driveshaft spacers but tegiwa and h-tune don't have any in stock... anywhere else I can look?

Or can I just cut the 1 piece spacers in half?

why not just use the 1 piece? Little longer to install is the only draw back

In the same boat myself at the moment. I'm only lowered 20 mm but have been for years and with the 9.5 rear wheel for years also i think it starting to take its toll on the rear. Finding it hard to get power through the car as the vibration seems so bad that i fear something is going to give way.

Honda in Ireland here are looking for €2600 plus vat for 2 complete rear drive shafts so am looking at alternative options

Have you tried swapping the CV cups around?

It's all the same any brand will do. It's a must have mod btw.
