100% money back guarantee against any vibrations? I expect more NVH from the one-piece, but I'm talking about body panel ejection vibration above 100mph, especially on decel.

The driveshaft is made of a thick wall Alcoa aluminum and could withstand somewhere in the area of 600RWHP. We have had guys running this driveshaft pushing those numbers, and not having any problems. These were stress/flex tested on a roadrace course that goes up to 130+ in the straight aways, and then tested and spun again. No vibration, still within 1/16-1/8 of a gram balanced, top quality!

Great DS
I've got this DS installed in 06 GT 5 speed. It was a breeze to install and the car hits redline much faster. I've had the car up to 140 on the runway at a closed down army camp... no vibrations felt or any issued at all.
CR was the great debate about what short throw sticks this will work with ever settled? I'm thinking about Pro 5.0

I cant offer that because of the amount of times installation mistakes have caused the vibration. This driveshaft, with the UCA will have the adjustability and WILL NOT vibrate. They're balanced to within 1/18-1/16 of a gram. I've installed them on PLENTY of S197s both auto and manual. No vibration.

I know the Saleen short shifter adapter doesnt work with the Coast Driveshaft, and from what I'm told MGW may or may not. I haven't had anyone with the MGW to test-fit.

We just put this driveshaft in on Friday and it is a nice fit. Our car is stock height and there's no clearance issues at all. We also had installed the Charge Motion Plates since the last trip to the track so I was hoping for a tenth or so gain but the weather was a bit muggy and we ran almost the exact same times as 2 weeks ago.
The new driveshaft seems to be alot smoother in the burnout box for some reason. The car just stays put and my wife commented that she could hardly tell she's doing the burnout.
I called CR when we were slamming this shaft in on Friday for a few tips on the installation and he was very accomodating. It sounded pretty busy in the background on his end and he took the time to answer any question I had.
I have been very impressed with Doug from Bamachips and the service he provides and it looks like CR may be a cut from the same mold. That's not always the case with these aftermarket company's. I am restoring a 1975 Bronco and I can't believe the poor service I have received from some the the big name Bronco parts places out there. It's nice to see these guys understand what we as a customer want and are able to provide it in a professional way.
CR if your listening can you post the rear end gear packages you have for me cause that's next. I'm looking for the 3:73's and want to make sure yours are the Ford ones and not the Motive brand. After that mod I think we're done and that should keep us in the high 12's regardless of the weather.
