1 piece driveshaft options for a 2007 Ford Mustang GT, anyone have one?

just like the title suggests. I know they are pricey as heck, but if a deal comes along you never know....

powerhouse 411 is the best one ive seen but there was also a carbon fiber driveshaft a few months ago online someplace for like $900

i have heard good things about the powerhouse one, and stories of the CF ones shattering....

[JerseyStang07-Brian]

interesting. i never heard anything about the cf one just that someone was offering it

[JerseyStang07-Brian]

why would there be clearance issues? would the driveshaft be the same diameter jsut minus a u joint?

The main issue with the one piece on a GT is vibration issues from what I've heard. Sixxers have no choice but a one piece...I am still battling bad vibrations when I let off the throttle over 100mph...lol

yeah ive read that the v6 driveshaft is only rated to run safely up to 115mph for a small amount of time at that speed before the vibrations become too extreme and cause it to fail/explode/take out your legs

I have a Coast shaft I think.It came with the D&D 6 speed kit.It works perfect even with our lowered car.

Seriously? What is the small amount of time, 15 seconds, an hour? That also brings the question of what about redlining say first gear with the RPM's spinning at that speed would it be close to the same at 115 mph?

the one steeda sells is great. and as neil said....the cf ones are alot stronger than aluminum ones. and when they fail, they dont total your car.
