The website for Jasper is: http://www.jasperengines.com/
Funny thing is, I can't seem to find the place in Oregon?!?! I may have been wrong about that. I am going to need to check on it, through some other customers.

A lot of these places that we are talking about, will really only do deliveries to businesses, so, it is a GOOD thing that you work for a place that can get this sort of thing.

One thing that kind of made me go, "Huh?" is your mention of a drive shaft. I have NO IDEA why you would need something like that.

I will get back to you on the All Trans thing, but it's going to be a few days, and yes, they do deliver. ;)

^ Thats awesome that they deliver. If you can find them that is ;)
And thats the same logo I saw at Franklin Auto. Ill see what I can find out on tuesday (I got monday of for a junk yard run :P)

And this I have heard something about the drive shaft needing to be changed. I honestly don't know exactly what it is. Sounds simple but I must have missed that along the road.
And thanks for all the help. I am really looking forward to you reply. Thanks again everyone.

Ok, here is some info.
You do not have a drive shaft.
You have only front axels, or, Constant Velocity Axles (CV Axles).
If you had a drive shaft, you would have an all-wheel drive Eclipse. Since you have an RS, this is not possible.
If somebody is trying to tell you, that you need a drive shaft, they are full of shit, they don't know what they are talking about, or they are trying to screw you, just cause they can.
You don't need a drive shaft. MAYBE, new front CV Axles, but no drive shaft.

^ Very good info. No one told me I needed a drive shaft. I have just been reading around and I keep seeing it come up but nothing I have read has been for an eclipse RS so that would probable explain it.

I also read that the CV axles may or may not fit. Depends on what your car is. Not sure if the tranny will fit but with a little research I am sure I could find out. Or just wait until I get the rest of it together lol. :P I believe my work sells CV axles. I would just have to figure out witch ones I would need. If I even need them. I wish my best friend was a mechanic lol.

Basically, you need the front CV axle from a 95-99 Eclipse GS, Eclipse RS, Eclipse Base, or a Talon ESi. I am sure there is other cars that use the same suspension/drivetrain format as the 2g N/A's, but I don't know too mucch about 2g's so I can't really help you there. Sorry.
