I can tell you that they have been fighting a drive line vibration on the Koni cars and they run the stock axles, but a one piece driveshaft.

problem fixed

tonight on the way home from work i got on her real hard and started getting vibrations at speeds as low as 30 mph so not being able to sleep i went back towork got her up on the lift trying to figure out were the vibration could be coming from while checking the axles i noticed a lot of slop in the cv joints so i pulled the axles out and put my stockers back in put it all back together and test drove it up 154 and it was smooth as silk no vibrations so now i have to figure out what im going to do with these axles

Just installed mine this weekend. Only drove it once and not at that high of speed. I did think it was a little shaky. I have not replaced my front sway bar from drag racing yet either though. Every time I do something to my car I think it takes away from how smooth it was from the factory. I will take her up a little higher today and see what happens. Unfortunately my passenger side CV joint cracked, so I will not be able to do a comparison test.

From what I have been told, most of the "HD, 1000hp" axles sold are made by the same place - the Driveshaft Shop out of NC. You may want to speak with them directly.

Any updates on what the DRiveshaft shop told you?

There are a lot of folks whom want axles, but I am not going to buy ones with this problem. I already have mine lined up from another company, so that is a good thing, but I want to know where not to send my customers if they do not fix this for you!!
