hello,
i have one that is marginally tech, but the folks whom know the answers are in here, so here goes:

i got my Ford aluminum driveshaft (before prices got too crazy). on each end, there is a 3" X 2" weight. is there a similar amount of weights on your aluminum driveshafts?
i think OEM shafts have smaller weights spread out along the shaft (not so noticable), rather than the 2 big ones i have. but i was surprised to see that (plus the welds are a little ugly, which made me wonder if the same assembly-line guys that decide to put a car together backwards now and then, perhaps had made my driveshaft. LOL).

i welcome all thoughts and experiences. many thanks!
