- Skidmarc replied to the thread Ford Racing 1 Pc driveshaft.I appreciate the heads up! Did you have any whine before you put in the DS and shifter? My driveline is stock now and it's bad. The car's only got 20K on it. I'm as sure as I can be that the noise is coming from the carrier bearing, it's not... (see full post)

Bill Pemberton replied to the thread S550 Upside Down and on the Wrong Side.The old standard that a 100 lbs of weight reduction is worth a second of time on the track is seldom remembered. I applaud your mods, weight off is such a simple way to gain time and speed. (see full post)-

- Slow3v replied to the thread Ford Racing 1 Pc driveshaft.Not to dissuade you but my 60-70mph whine is very pronounced with the addition of my MGW and the DS. Can’t attribute it to one or the other but after both going in, it’s loud. (see full post)
- Skidmarc replied to the thread Ford Racing 1 Pc driveshaft.This and a MGW shifter has been on my tops on my list. I'm sick of the clunkiness and 60-80 mph high frequency whine I get. I'm waiting to pull the trigger 'cause I figure it'll be easier to install the shifter if the DS is down. I'm lowered... (see full post)
