I just had 3.73 gears installed in my 2000 GT 'vert. The gears are absolutely quiet but I did pick up an ever so slight vibration at like 80 or 90-not bad but I do notice it. Would an aluminum driveshaft cure this or would I be wasting my money?

The driveshaft isn't going to fix your vibration most likely. But it is a great piece to change out for reduced driveline power loss, and overall weight reduction. At about $160, it's worth a shot.

If you have $160 burning a hole in your pocket, sure.

I've seen people reducing that vibration after gears swap by switching to an alum driveshaft..I myself have one too but I still run original gears
