Aluminum Driveshaft...Balance?
 
I'm looking at picking up the aluminum driveshaft but had heard some questions about balance. Do these come from the mfr balanced or do I have to get it balanced when I receive it? I'm looking at the FRPP driveshaft from Summit. Any opinions or comments are welcome. Thanks guys.

The SVO aluminum shaft comes balanced from Ford.

Not to sound like a wise *** , but call (or e-mail) Summit. They will either know the answer or find out for you, they're good about stuff like that. http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...oard/smile.gif

Thanks guys. I was planning on making sure that they were balanced when I called and ordered the driveshaft. I had read a few threads about driveshafts going out of alignment or coming unbalanced so I thought I would make sure. The information I get from Summit, and other performance parts suppliers, isn't always as complete as the info I get from you guys so I like to check both. Thanks for the responses.
