Here's my take, GForce customers dont need to quibble in this arena. We know what we have and the word is getting out. We have serious setups. I know GForce and the clientele are extremely happy with our choices...be glad and thankful for your decision! Just my take

I thought this was some interesting reading about Dynotech driveshafts, the company that makes our 9" and OEM replacement driveshafts.

I read that awhile back! Interesting how the competition here keeps saying these don't work.

I think i was one of the first to get this DS installed. I also received PMs warning me that i was in grave danger and that this DS was a ticking timebomb. I beat on it for 6 weeks until my #5 top ringland finally gave out. I had no issues at 715 rwhp and flogging it daily. Nor have i read of any others having issues. I think there are quite a few out there on 5th gens now.

Well today is the day. Dynotech/gforce shaft goes in today. It would have been sooner but I decided to also install prothane motor mounts and mti transmission mount. I will post up pictures later.

Chris, I called earlier and talked to Casey I either have to buy a new heat shield or have you guys fab one to hold the e brake cables high enough to not rub. The dss drive shaft flexed them quite a bit so they hang down a bit. Now I wish I wouldn't have bent my original heat shield trying to get it to fit the dss drive shaft.

I'll be out of town until Tuesday, when I get back in I'll talk with Casey and see what we can do.

Thanks

Mine is in and running great! I just ordered a new factory heatshield and that solved my problems.
