Re: question about posi and my driveshaft
Get under your car.. see if the driveshaft is all rusty and nasty, if so its steel. And my posi (well... limited slip) doesnt whine

Re: question about posi and my driveshaft
The only third gens that came with aluminum driveshafts were the 1le cars, which was rare. If you would like a aluminum one though. Let me know and I can get one for your car for ya.

Re: question about posi and my driveshaft
I was actually just kidding about that. I just wiped it down but those are easy enough to shine up. You just take a brillo pad or some steel wool and some detergent and just go to work. They come out real shinny. To actually use a dremel or die grinder to polish one of those would take a while and the brillo or steel wool will get similiar results.

Re: question about posi and my driveshaft
Gah, I'm so gullable. Yeah, I saw this one guy polished the heck out of his with a dremel. Looked like a mirror after he was finished. I wouldn't mind mine looking like that, but there's no way I'm going to spend that much time on it. Got better things to do than to be strokin my shaft

Re: question about posi and my driveshaft
I buy them in bulk from a F-body salvage yard. So I am able to sell them cheaper than you could get them directly. I usually order 3 - 6 at a time and they are plenty strong. There are cars running 9's and 10's on LS1 3 inch aluminum driveshafts and yes they are direct replacements for your 4th gen and 3rd gens. I can also get the 1le style but the LS1 is lighter and stronger, so that would be the one I would recommend besides they are both made by three rivers for GM. I sell them on ebay all the time and they usually sell for right around 190 shipped, as you can see by a few of my auctions http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7982285784 , http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33738 but I sell them to members here and people I know outside ebay for 150 shipped.

Re: question about posi and my driveshaft
what if you get a new rearend tho? with it still bolt right up? i guess as long as you dont change the distance between the tranny and the rearend it should still reach..
