Deffinitely feels like driveline vibration, has anyone else had an issue? Thanks again for getting her going, waiting for the track to open back up so I can get that 11.6. Last run was in 85 degrees, pulled a 1.65 60' (while pulling timing) and trapped a 12.1/111. Corrected times show it to be a 11.6 @ 115. Oh, it also is getting two piece front rotors and V6 rears. Thats worth at least a tenth.

i had similar vibration, and after inspecting dshaft..it twisted slightly up front area, had to look reral good and roll on ground...if you have had some decent launches , i would look it over...

Steve, might be a good idea to have the driveshaft spun again to cisco the ballance. I don't think that's it since you have a carbon fiber shaft but as many times as its been in and out, who knows.
Those gears where way off too, back lash was over .020 and pinion depth was pretty far out as well. We set it up to what it should be but so I wouldn't think it would vibrate, make still make a little because it was so far off from the last guy though.
If your in Oak City again, swing up here and I'll figure out what it is.
Glad the new bearing design took care of the leak, they work great.

Thanks
Chris

This looks like a real serious setup.

It is, it's a real work of art. 100% cnc machined, laser cut, tig welded and jig located.

Our 9" kits now come standard with 35 spline stubs, you can get the smaller 31 spline as an option.

Thanks
Chris

I'm considering this in my list. Looking at DSS options for 9" and the 12 bolt, however this seems very competitive with those options and come highly recommended. I'll have my shop give you guys a call and figure out what's good for my setup. BTW- I like the fact you have lifetime warranty, says you stick by the product.

I ordered the Gforce 9" kit with 35 spline S-Trac, 3.50 gears and chromoly driveshaft. If all goes as planned the install will be on 20 Feb. I did a whole lot of research but GForce just stood out a little more for my needs. Plus a 1000+ rwhp ridiculous GTO at the shop i have used in the past is running this setup!

Everything on track for your install. Your 35 spline inner stubs are in heat treat, Strange is building your pumpkin and we just got all our laser cut pieces done for another run of 40 9" housings

Thanks

Thanks Chris, i responded in the post above this with the pics of the side gears and stubs. I asked if everything is on track of 20 Feb. Well looks like you answered my question. Thanks. Casey said the Chromoly DS and pumpkin were drop shipping to my house and you were bringing everything else down. I called and he is double checking. Thanks for the outstanding customer service...its refreshing esp. after the ass pain i have been going thru trying to get my new wheels and tires in.

Everything is right on track, your Strange Pro-Iron pumpkin with the 35 spline S-Track is at the shop, stubs and axles are assembled and your housing will be all ready to go Wednesday.
We are working on a surprise on the driveshaft. An all new design that will set the standard for 2010 Camaro driveshafts. Your getting one of the first ones
Call me and I'll fill you in on the details.

Thanks
Chris

Dont worry, your one of the first few
I wont be releasing any info though until we have parts on the shelf ready to crank these shafts out, give me another week or 2. I have enough parts to make about 3 shafts right now.

Hey bro', only a few weeks left. Are you doing tranny upgrades too?
Make sure you keep me in the loop.
