I've got a Denny's and love it. Overall NVH has been reduced. Much less clunking than the stock multi piece shaft. Engine spools up quicker and car feels overall lighter. Engine breaking is greatly reduced, not really good or bad to me, but it's noticeable. I got the Denny's due to a group buy, it is a smaller diameter than all AL shafts, and it has a lifetime warranty against warping/breakage. I figured the 3" would have more clearance and would not need an UCA to keep from hitting the bottom of the car like some people have had with a 4".

That being said, half the people I have polled have had vibration issues with the Denny's that make it an unacceptable mod IMO. I just got lucky and I'm in the half that didn't have issues.

If I got another, I'd get a Spyder!

Thanks for the support guys. I did lower price to offset the shipping for what was going to be an initial period but I'm just going to stick with where it's at and not raise it back up. I figured that was better than doing a group buy one time.

Looks like the Spyder is the choice of many.
Now whose upper control arm and safety loop?
I am looking at going with some Steeda sports springs with about a 1" drop, is the pinion angle needing to be adjusted or not with that small of a change?

I'm going with BMR for both. The pinion angle should be checked regardless of the amount lowered. Get the adjustable UCA, or adjustable LCA's to adjust pinion angle.

I'm not positive, but I don't think anyone sells them cheaper than BMR direct http://www.gnetworks.com/v4/go.gnf?s...ult&d=products . You may be able to get a discount on shipping through on e of the vendors here.
