DSS Driveshaft M6 Car....

[Farrdaddy]

Had a huge vibration between 40 to 60, basically drumming in the car. Beefcake suggested turn it 180, as did DSS and it didnt help. Gonna send it back in and see if its out of balance. I looked and didnt see many of the 15s and up having an issue but some previous years had this issue. ANy one else on here have to send theirs back. SUCKS putting car on stands multiple times. LOL.

Thanks

Did you turn it 180 at the diff or on both ends? I had very slight vibes on mine over 60 and clocking 180 at the diff only fixed it. Smooth as silk now.

Seems like an issue with one peice drive shafts vibrating 50-60. My shaft masters has that.

I might try the 180 at the diff side.

I had this issue and I sent my DSS back in and they changed the CV axle. I however did not try to clock it on the diff 180 degrees before sending it back. After i got it back, I reinstalled and still had crazy vibration issues. I clocked it 180 degrees on the diff side and all is well now. Smooth all the way up to 130 MPH.

Is it like a rumble ? Mine does that

I wouldn't say rumble, more like a bad wheel.

my 5th Gen Camaro had this it was horrible, the 2 piece shaft is part of the cars design it seems, lots of S550 owners are switching back to stock shafts. DSS makes some awesome parts no idea why some are having these issues, the driveline angles are not bad by design. keep us posted on the results,

The purpose of the cv joint is to minumize vibrations as it adjusts itself to offset those vibrations. But lately all I've been hearing about dss is vibration issues. I have a dynotech being installed during my build which should be done later this week or early next week.

It can only be the pinion angle. After speaking to a shop and finding out that the angle is way off from what would be good in normal car I may just hold on the the ds I have for now until somebody comes up with a solution to fix the angle.

Try clocking the DS on the rear 180 degrees. Helped me. I checked the angles on my pinion with a magnetic angle finder before clocking and found the angles with the pinion and transmission output(with dss adapter) to be spot on. This led me to clocking the Driveshaft, and it worked wonders

typically clocking it will do the job

I've clocked mine and it didn't help. Seems that not all cars are good to go.

if there is an issue, they will get you dialed in
