Alright, would you please provide a link or article explaining the correct proceedure for proper pinion angle adjustment for the Mustang GT with a single piece drive shaft.

Then we all we know and maybe the moderator will make it a "sticky"

Thank you.
I have allready done so in other posts, even in posts made by you. Here's an article that explains it as simply as possible.

Question regarding DS... Do you honestly think/recommend a person that has an automatic to get the PH DS or any aluminum DS?? Does it really help compensate the loss I feel from not getting a manual (wife cant drive a stick... pathetic I know)? I have read way to many opinions on auto's vs stick, but I would like to do everything I can to help my ego since all I have ever driven in sports cars were manuals... please help...lol

local shop chopped down a ranger aluminum driveshaft for me, it's exactly what PH is selling but for only $350

It's on a automatic, very smooth no problems at all,you can feel the improvement... it lets a fewmore horses get to the rear wheels.

Shold be on everyones wish list!

im guessing that this is somethign that i could do myself? I have an 05 GT, stick, not lowered, in fact 100% stock... Ive worked on cars my whole life... A little apprehensive to start adjusting pinion angles and the like... Is there one that I could just bolt on? Ive replaced driveshafts in my dads jeep a few times... similiar?

Did you read the article I posted a link to? You should have atleast an adjustable upper control arm IMO if switching to a 1 piece shaft. They all just bolt on.
