Default new drive shaft

Ime just looking into this for now but i want to start looking for a new drive shaft, i just wondered if anyone has done this and if so how much it cost, andhow it performs. The reason ime looking into this is weight and a more reliable one that can stand more pressure over stock. What is the stock one rated at top speed?
thanks alot guys!

$386.00 at Shaftmasters.(313)383-6347. Weight about 17 lbs. Versus stock V-6 about 30 lbs. I`ve heard of stock shafts(supercharged cars) letting go at 125 mph. Very smooth running and easy to install. I`m not supercharged but I wanted piece of mind and to get rid of a persisting vibration I had. Well worth it to me.

That phone number might be superseded by this number (866)912-2004. Ask about his free shipping special.

The Shaftmasters is a great product. I have it on my car and can really feel a difference. The car is much smoother riding, acceleration is smooth and quick. After putting on the driveshaft I went to the track the next day and set a personal best - so my "butt dyno" was proved correct.

They are a Forum sponsor - check the vendor list and see what he has for pricing, I think he still has free shipping. They are the manufacturer so pricing is better than other places (no middleman).
