BMR works with a guy that will sell you the lower control arms with the LCA bearing installed, and then he will give you a partial refund once you return your lower control arms back to him. It's not the route I went as I had plenty of down time during the winter, but I did consider it. Just...

I bought a used DSS shaft for a manual, installed it and have not had a single issue. I have also read that some people believe that if you have aftermarket half shafts (which I do), you are less likely to experience any issues. I can't speak for anyone else, but for whatever reason my DS...

Is the evaporator issue primarily limited to warmer climates? Most of the cars that seem to have problems apear to be from states such as FL, TX, etc. My warranty is about to expire, and I have contemplated buying Ford ESP just out of fear of this happening. However, my local dealership said...

Maybe at the track...not sure as I only use bias ply at the track. On the street, however, I haven't had issues with wheelhop since adding a few components from BMR. I've since gradually thrown the entire BMR catalog at it, and wheelhop just isn't an issue on the street (and I believe that is...

Invest in some suspension mods to eliminate the wheelhop which caused the problem to begin with.

I switched out the gears so I could keep the Torsen.

I did not notice anything unusual, which is what I thought was especially scary. I had purchased a DSS shaft that I had found used, went to install it and was shocked to find everything mangled when removing the OEM shaft.

Stock driveshaft If you have FI and launch with sticky tires, be careful with the stock driveshaft. The pics below show what I discovered with mine.

I have a DSS shaft/MT-82 and don't have any vibration issues/noises. I was concerned about that prior to the install, but I didn't end up needing to look for solutions. However, I remember reading a number of threads in which people were able to correct the problem by changing the pinion...

I have the DSS aluminum shaft and am happy with it. I only picked that one as I got a good deal on a used one from a forum member. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the popular choices.

I did it mostly like the CIPP video, but on jack stands. It took a long time (probably 12 hours), but I wasn't rushing. I did have to lift the motor some with a floor jack and a piece of wood.

I have the same axels as you and don't have any unusual sounds. I have the BMR poly inserts, and they cause plenty of their own NVH though.

I wasn't having any issues with the car. The car has a Vortech with a RXT and makes around 700whp. I'm sure the damage was done while previously at the track and launching with slicks. I typically run around on DR's, but I don't beat on the car on the street.
