Im going to put a downer in this thread...

When I installed my 1pc DS it got rid of the stock DS clunk completely. Everything was now quiet. But after having it for a month now, the clunking is back as loud as before - but now its coming from the tranny! This is probably due to the dampening of the 2pc no longer being there so the tranny is taking more of a beating.

Car runs fine, but eh it just makes me nervous.

But yes, speed-wise, you do feel more jump with the 1pc.

I got the spyder for $504 shipped.
just put red loc-tite on everything and you'll be fine kekekekeke

the 2 piece DS has a different pinion angle than a 1 piece DS....YES you need to adj the angle for the DS, you might not feel any problems but your pinion is going to be off

Alright educate me. If I get the Aluminum driveshaft do I need extra stuff too to make it complete?

I also have the same question. Does a one piece driveshaft mean I just bought intoadjustable suspensioncomponents or are non-adjustablecomponents available that are corrected to a new driveshaft?
I probably will NOT lower my car. Thanks.

The one peice is one of the best mods I did. I got the Aluminum from Coast driveline for 560 bucks, it came with everything. No problems with driveline angles. I put it in and all has been good.

Mines fine without any adjustments... which is good because I already bought non-adjust suspension components...

Spyder guy says you're good at stock height... i'll believe him
