Company History

Drive Shafts, Inc. started as Rick's Driveline in 1977.  Owner Rick Whitehead desired to start a business that would provide quality drive shafts to companies and individuals while providing the utmost customer service.  Rick's Driveline quickly grew, and in 1980, the business was incorporated and earned the name Drive Shafts, Inc.

Drive Shafts, Inc. has become a fixture in Tulsa, OK and has earned a reputation in the driveline industry as one of the leaders in providing quality customer service.  The staff that started with Rick and his wife, Rita, has continued to grow with time but remains a close-knit family.  This family atmosphere lends well to customers who are always treated with care.

In 2007, Drive Shafts, Inc. expanded yet again.  Universal Joint Specialists in Ft. Smith, AR became Drive Shafts' second location and serves as a part supplier for many in Northeastern Oklahoma and Arkansas.
