I went the route of a non-certified driveshaft. Figured the quality would be the same. Downside is that it will be April before testing it out.

If the GT500 is supposed to have a cf driveshaft do we have any idea whether it would be a drop in for the GT350?

It would be really surprising if it would swap.

I did the same when bought the QA1 for my HC. Quality is the same. Difference is the SFI certified one is torque tested by them and given the cert. I think the cert is required on the NHRA tracks or something.

One has the cert sticker on it. Both are the same thing.

So does JJ-21208 or JJ-21213 have the SFI certification?
On the QA1 website it looks like 08 is with SFI and 13 is not. Do the vehicle search and click on either DS. Then click on the part numbers tab. I don't see any other differences between the two but read up on it and call them if you still have questions.

Thanks I ordered 21208 with SFI.

I do need to know the allen socket sizes (or any other sockets) for the install. It would be great if someone can chime in. So:

- Sockets to remove the stock driveshaft (transmission side and diff side).
- Sockets to install the QA1 driveshaft (transmission side and diff side).

UnhandledException, I installed one this past winter. If you are using jack stands & are up around 18"-21" for working height I would suggest to take the time & build yourself a small pair of wood sawhorses. Found them to be very helpful with this installation as I performed this solo. Also suggest to use some old blankets or whatever to use as a cushion "just-in-case" you happen to bump /drop the DS. Company considers it junk if dropped.

Good Luck!
