DSS Carbon Fiber, nice shaft but expensive. Bought it during one of those many Lethal Performance sales.
best 1 piece driveshaft
- Thread starter bottle fed 14
- Start date
I had a Dynotech for almost 2 years now. No vibrations or other issues to report so far.
I've had Dynotech for about 4 years with no vibration. Excellent driveshaft and you don't need to change the pinion flange as some others do.
shaftmasters...zero issues
shaftmasters-perfect on my car so far
Dynotech 3.5", no issues, I'm happy with it
I cannot easily use my stock DS again, I had to cut the carrier bearing support with a sawzall because one bolt was crossthreaded from factory, or from previous owner.
Yes that is a very good quote, David is a professional, and a nice dude. My DS still vibrates Grabber.
I'm installing my Hellion TT as we speak, I don't have a lot of time to tweak the UCA right now as I've already done that process 4-5 times, thought I'd have it dialed in by now so that I can go fast once TT install is done.
Again, David is a great guy. Although Grabber you might want to check your theory on turning the ds a 1/4 turn because I did suggest that to David when we spoke on the phone and David said that "the drive shaft is balanced turning should make no difference", I thought about that and I agree with David I mean it's his ds he would know right.
David, hi. I don't know what happened here. But listen. You seem like a great guy, you seem professional. You said there will not be a 3-4-5 week wait, you said "Warranty issues address in 24 hrs"...that does not mean that I will have a DS in 24 hrs. That means you set back while I re-box, reship, and when you receive DS you check out the DS, then you send it, or another, back to me. That is too much down time even if it's a total of 2 weeks. And since I'm on the burner here and you're posting our correspondence then lets start from the beginning. I order DS, it shows up in a jacked up box, we find out that DS came loose in shipping, UPS re-boxed it, you said you don't believe UPS jacked anything up, I install DS, I adjust UCA, again and again and again, you still think the DS is fine but you tell me "send it back and we'll check it out", I say "but my car is a DD and I cannot reuse my stock DS I'll be stuck".
Ok at this point, I believe, since UPS spilled the DS down the Hwy(who knows?)that I could have been AT LEAST send an RMA UPS/FedEx return label, etc. I mean I just paid $600 for a DS now I gotta pay to send the ****** back? And wait.
But instead you email me this= "We do not think there is anything wrong with the driveshaft. We do not ship "lemons". It is also very unlikely that UPS was able to damage it even though the box was open when you received it.
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." David, that sure sounds like at least 3 weeks to me. I'm sorry David but honestly aside from anything that may look good on paper the truth is that this is how it all went down and maybe I have a distorted view, but that's how I see it, how I feel,what I think(due to the UPS cataclysmic event), and I never wanted this BC on the forum I came on here to read about Ford Racing DS not to do this.
...and David for the record it is a very beautifully welded/crafted/shiny DS, I especially like the big Spicer u-joints and those copper clips, I took a pic of it when received it and sent it to some of my friends just to.make them jealous. The front of the car is up in the air at present(very limited with equipment/lifts/etc where I'm at, geographically, at the moment ) removing engine, replacing some things including clutch, timing chain, Hellion headers, etc and I can't even access the DS/pinion flange so when I get the TT installed I'll call you or something, I won't have any down time due to a DS, I'll buy a new one before that happens, js if I could go back, 'after' UPS, and 'before' I purchased an $8,500 TT kit I would've bought a new DS, again, and "then" sent this one back. To each his own but 1 week or 2 weeks of down time that could've been avoided makes me want to kill myself.
David. Sorry it took so long to get back I've been pulling my motor, David I got your email thank you you're a good man I don't care what BMR said about you *joking, thank you and I'm sorry.

Oh look, a fb rx7. What's done to it? I used to be a big rotor head years ago lol.
this caught my eye.ad is for M6 and i cant find a listing for A6.
Installed my shaftmasters "new and improved" one piece today that I bought a few months back. Very very happy with it so far, absolutely no vibrations at all. Can't beat it for the price.
I think I seen one for AT on Don Wood (Ford Racing parts)website.
All emissions crap pulled out, still Nikki 4bbl, RB headers, suspension(it was my car in high school, just gave it to my son...72k original miles)
are running factory UCA.i see u have bmr LCA
your car sits gutted in a field for god knows how long to install a TT, but you can't afford the downtime to get a replacement shaft? I guess Shaftmasters could send you a replacement on the cuff, but I've never heard of a company doing that.
I'm pretty sure the '11-'14 GT's use the same shaft, regardless of manual or auto
