+1 Dynotech. I am very pleased with mine. Very rare to hear about them having any issues (unlike another very popular brand).

I just picked up a 2014 and was thinking about the DSS 1-Piece Carbon Fiber Driveshaft. What's the popular not so great brand?

Bought a DSS, heard tons of horror stories of poor customer service, product failure without the backing of the company, etc.

Returned it and bought a Shafter Masters. Looking forward to testing it out.

I've had a shaftmasters for 3+ months, it's a nice looking shaft, installs fairly easy. But anything over 100-120mph I get vibration like car is coming apart. I talked with them and they say "send it back we'll test it". The only reason that I haven't is because I need my freakin' car to NOT be parked for 3-4-5 weeks. I've adjusted UCA ...I don't know what else to try. ? I think I want a different DS.

Can you put on your stock one in the mean time. DSS had mine for just over a week while they rectified my issue. They should have shipped me a new one after it was the third bad one and upgraded me to Carbon.

From our correspondence with customer:
"We will gladly check out the shaft and let you know if we find any issues with it. If the shaft checks out OK we would like to give you a full refund."


We should have mentioned in the correspondence that there will not be a 3-4-5 week wait. Warranty issues are normally addressed in 24 hrs.

Do you still have the stock driveshaft? Are you able to try to take it back to the shop to diagnose that installed it? Sometimes a 1/4 turn on the shaft eliminates any vibration.

I ran a Shaftmasters on my Supercharged 07 GT for about 2 years and over 20,000 miles and it was raced hard on/off the track. Not a single vibration.

See below, that is definitely a great response from a vendor.

Well said Shaftmasters! Glad that we have support like this and someone that does back their product without question.

I use and typically recommend Shaftmasters to my customers.

The primary reason is because they go out of their way to ensure the customer is taken care of, and it is usually extremely fast if you have any sort of warranty work performed.
