aluminum driveshaft

[94GTLaserRC]

Price of aluminum AND our cars are getting older at the same time and all needing driveshafts = increased demand I would guess.

Good ole economics at work!

May wanna try Dallas Mustang, I don't know if the price went up with them, but I got mine for 149.99 back then.

What would switching to an aluminum drive shaft give you.
I was talkin to my buddy and he said more throttle response.
I just want to know before i actully make up my mind to buy one.

it's not, just figured the least amt of vibration is best after going though so many parts on the drivetrain.

thanks for all the help everyone, I'll try the other places, but a couple of the websites showing stock are in fact on backorder.

It gives you less rotating mass in the driveline which means more HP/TQ to the wheels. I'm not sure of its value in terms of how much HP/TQ, but it's not very much. I don't know what upgrades you've got, but on a stock stang, I don't think you'll feel the difference from an aluminum driveshaft. You could weigh both of them and calculate the difference or you could dyno with the stock shaft and then immediately redyno with the aluminum .
