Not to mention thin-walled and cardboard-damped.

You can go alum. as a lighter, somewhat economical option. Carbon is $.

Denny's is good.

Re: Which Driveshaft should i buy?

Ok, so after hearing you state that everyone bashes inland empire i had top do some searches since i have one. Didn't find any bashes, but the one i have fit great and performs just like you would expect a drive shaft to. I love it and have zero complaints.
Here's a short thread on the Inlands- https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/tran...riveshaft.html
May wana look into Denny's Driveshafts, here's a thread talking about a few and their website.
