generally the only things to 'rebuild' are the 2 uni joints and the centerbearing.. if u really wanted to, u could to the CV joints also.. but they last almost forever.. not a hard job to do urself, just fiddly

cost, u'd have to ring a bearing joint.. and if u could get all the parts replaceable and then take em to a diff joint or machanic u'd save heaps

A driveline specialist will balance the tailshaft as well as changing the unis and centre bearing. Its been years since ive even asked about getting it done but I think it was about $250.
