Wooo Hooo Shaftmasters Drive Shaft arrived

[SC_Terminator]

I can't wait to get it installed Wednesday....I am waiting until then, because I am going to have Ford replace the leaking pinion seal and add the shaft while they have it on the lift....

Thanks to David at Shaftmasters....he gets a gold star for customer service....

Also, with their current sale, I got 10% off making it 539.00 shipped to my door....

Great shaft (from what I have read) at a great price....

I will post results, but have only read great things about them....

Make sure when you install it line the welded weight at the rear of the shaft up with the yellow mark on the rear diff...

Good point....I didn't realize that.....thanks for the tip

Edit: I just looked at the shaft.....they have a yellow mark on the shaft (no weight welded that I can see)....I will line that mark up with the yellow mark on the rear end....

I hope you have better luck than the others as far as vibration is concerned.

I've had 0 vibrations on mine. I have about 5000 miles on mine.

Ive had mine 1500 miles zero vibration. I wish I got mine for 539$. But $599 was good enough. ..

0 vibration for me. David is awesome to deal with and quick turn around.

I've had mine on for 40k plus vibration free miles. Congrats

 

[SCalla1384]

I think the ones getting vibration issues either didn't torque them, or adjust them for pinion angle.

 

[hitmix300]

is there any weight savings with the shaft?

no vibrations here either...who are these "others" you speak of?

Just research I was doing when I was looking into driveshafts. Seems that shaftmaster has the most vibration complaints. It's the internet so that probably equates to a small percentage of actual issues I'm sure.

They make a good product.

 

[SC_Terminator]

I researched them before I ordered....everything I saw was a good report....not to mention, with the current sale 539 shipped is worth a try to me....

I will report how mine does.....

 

[Coyote'13]

$539 shipped is definitely a nice price. After I get some slicks I'll probably pick one up myself. You said there wasn't any weights? So it's unbalanced?

 

[pickles]

I had vibration issues with mine initially. My car is lowered, so I installed a bmr uca to dial in the pinion angle and that fixed it right up.

I've put 8000k on since then, no issues.

 

[ONESTOUTSTANG]

I will be looking at this soon too. Hope to pick up a 13 GHIG soon.
