[QUOTE="cobralvr01, post: 14996663, member: 164560"] I did last night. I got under there and checked out if they were bad. I did the "Indian rope burn" test at both ends of the DS to check for any slack with the u-joints....none. I tried rotating the DS as it sat, with the car on jacks, e-brake on and with the car in gear. The DS has about 10-15* of rotational play in it. I researched it and apparently this is ok??? When rotating it, though, I could here the faint sound of the clunking. It may just be the U-joints are just ****ed and I'm not testing it properly. But it is def. coming from the freeplay with the DS. It could also be the DS is out of balance? I think I'll check to see if replacing the u-joints will fix the issue. If not then I'll pull the trigger on the aluminum DS. I'll keep this thread updated. Edit: Since there is a good Labor Day Sale going on through AM, I went ahead and purchased a FR aluminum driveshaft last night for around $260 shipped w/ my svt coupon. I'll keep this up-to-date on how it feels afterward. [/QUOTE]
