1 piece driveshaft
Does any one know of a company other than dss that makes a driveshaft for our cars and how is the quality?
Also I have a dss aluminum auto driveshaft I may sell.

Gforce sells Dynotech one-piece shafts. I have their 3.5" aluminum shaft and it seems to be of great quality. I was going to get one from DSS, originally, but the turn-around tine to get one was unacceptable.

I've installed it and it seems to have a vibration above 75 or so. I pulled it out and sent it to DSS to have it checked over and they changed the cv and checked balance on it (no charge to me and I bought it used) I reinstalled it and still has a vibration so I'm not sure if I have a problem somewhere else or what is going on. I cant hardly believe something is wrong with the shaft as they have checked it out twice. Maybe I'm to sensitive to any vibration. I have no complaints as they have gone out of the way to fix the problem.

Why do people change their drive shaft to a single piece drive shaft?

I got one because of pictures I saw of some cars busted up underneath from a broken 2 piece. I don't know how much of an issue it actually is.

Lighter in weight.
Improves throttle response by eliminating lag from rubber isolators and pivot in the factory drive shaft. Stronger than factory configuration which has been known to sheer bolts at the diff.
