Let me just speak up on behalf of CR.. Just in the last couple hours we installed the new coast driveshaft on my car. Now, i don't even know CR or tillman speed ,but I can tell all of you it fit perfect and my car has the pro kit on it with the FRPP damper kit, steeda LCA's etc etc. I can also tell you that there are no clearance issues with this shaft and the tech editor from 5.0 magazine who is doing the article on the car was most impressed with this piece...if you are on the fence with this deal CR is running i would get off the fence and order it up!...

Thank you for the kind words. Have you got a chance to check it out yet? Mark said your car is beginning to become quite the monster!

There is some serious bashing taking place on another forum about Tillman and this driveshaft; I don't think its fair, one person gets an attitude and then cost a vendor sales, by spurring his personnel venon. I ordered this driveshaft after doing some research, and I'm sure its as good and probably better then any out there for the money.
Your first guess who's doing the bashing will prbably be right.

I haven't seen it first hand yet. I will see it tomorrow. Shop called me though and said it was the nicest one he'd seen to this point. He has installed a couple different brands on the s197's and this was a superior product in his opinion as far as build quality and fitment.I will tell you I'm looking forward to the ride though after everything is done

That shop is supposed to be killer with the Mustangs. I hear they do alot of work with the 03-04 Cobras. How come California gets all the good crap?

Mark was the one who checked, in the morning I will find out what it was.

I assume it was the same as factory which was a -2.7 degrees.

I'll check in the morning.

Where's the bashing?

You should probably keep the opinions to yourself if you don't have facts to back it up!

I never bashed anyone, and I had nothing but facts!

I hope you are completely satisfied with your shaft. It's the people like you who always ask for help when a problem comes up because you didn't consider the warnings set forth in the beginning.

You manned up and said there was some serious bashing...So man up and say who it was!

You already stated in the other forum you would not buy anything from Tillman so why do you even bother responding to someone you wouldn't do business with. Why don't you give it up and stay on the other forum.

He said you were lowered and I'll assume you're on the stock control arms since you both are saying that it went smoothly without modification. Did you check the pinion angle?

Nope, I guess you're right. I haven't seen it or driven it so I must know nothing. hmmm?..Well, the owner of extreme mustangs installed it, drove it and said there were no issues and it cleared the tunnel!. In fact, considering he had the head tech editor there during the install and drivability test, One can only assume HE knows what he's talking about. And, I mentioned in my previous post I had LCA's on the car from Steeda and the pinion angle is within specs i'm told.Now, do I know the exact degree?..No. To be honest I didn't ask because Sean over there has worked on my car for a long time, has a tremendous reputation and is trusted by Vortech,Paxton, Saleen,GMS and several others to do many of their specialty show vehicles.So, his knowledge and word are good enough for me.
