Sure
Shaftmasters are great quality and price. They were on sale a couple months back for like $550. I paid $599 and love it

Just installed mine.
It's a night and day difference, wouldn't hesitate to grab one.

What makes it a night and day difference? Everyone always says how much better things are but why is it better than stock. Not defending the two piece unit. Just trying to figure out why I should spend money on this product?
lighter so quicker acceleration and slightly better gas mileage, lets the motor wind out easier...
once piece design, making it stronger and no joints meaning no clunks from the drive line making it butter smooth.
I will be getting one at xmas time with all the sales going on
(I had one on my old car and I loved it, could tell the difference the first drive I took with the new drive shaft)

Everything Nuar mentioned sums it up.
Its an entirely different feel to the car, its hard to explain , kinda one of those things you have to experience first hand.
I installed a Shaftmasters about 400 miles ago. Easy install, vibration free. But to be totally honest here I installed it to lower my ET at the track. Did absolutely nothing. Same ET as the stock unit. Smooth all the way up to 110 mph. Also I believe its stronger and better than the stock unit. But if you stay on the street only I wouldn't bother. They do have the best price. Only took 4-5 days for delivery. If you're getting one I would definitely go with Shaftmasters!

I had one on my 11 auto. It vibrated above 60 MPH. It wasn't a bad vibration but it was noticeable. I bought a DSS carbon fiber well over a year ago and just installed it this weekend. It doesn't vibrate. To be fair I never tried to re clock the shaftmaster. I may have been able to rotate it 180 get rid of the vibration. I'll take it to a shop around here and see if it is out of balance and may put it on the Boss.
Hard to believe it made no difference in ET or MPH (not refuting what you expienced) I would be tempted to swap it out at the track after a few runs on the stock shaft, if that's possible. Maybe it would make more of a difference on a road course.
Shaftmasters makes a great product. I wouldn't hesitate to run one.
Absolutely. .. I actually use them exclusively for all my customers needs. They do all my th400 shafts and my s197 ones. Have purchased 20+ shafts from them most custom and have had zero issues.
Mine had a slight vib but turned in 180 and all is good. Customer service before during and after is top notch. Mine is for a 9" with a 1350 joint at dif and it fit perfect.
+1
Quick question in regards to shaftmasters DS: Is it safe and still reliable spinning to 8K RPM? If i build my motor over the winter i will set my redline to around 8K RPM to fully take advantage of BOSS IM and Paxton.
