Hey, I had a vibration problem with my mustang, and a while back it was recomended to me to replace the drive shaft as a possible fix. Well I just got the mustang back on the road, and the vibraton was really pissing me off. So i removed the old shaft, checked the u joints for play and they seemed fine, spun the shaft 180 degrees (i marked the shaft before removal) and reinstalled. Took the care for a drive and the vibration was much less.

So out to the store and got an aluminim motorsport shaft for under $200 installed it in fifteen minutes, and no more vibration.

Thanks to all who helped me on this board, and hope this is helpful to anyone else woth this problem.

Wow, that's great. I've never had any major driveshaft problems, but I probably will once I start taking my car to the strip. Good to hear you got it fixed!
