When Should I Replace My Fox Body Mustang's driveshaft?
You should inspect or replace your driveshaft if you experience excessive vibration, driveline noise, worn universal joints, damaged components, or if you're increasing horsepower beyond the intended limits of the factory drivetrain.
Why Upgrade To An Aluminum Driveshaft?
