3 weeks? I ordered mine last Friday and got it today. It came from CJ Nevada to California.

Wtf man yea I thought that was fishy too. Yea I called CJPP today and they said they’d check and call me back tomorrow. But yea, WTF.

You got to be fucking kidding me. This is how they package $1400 carbon shaft?

What a mess and I hope that you have some recourse with your supplier over this matter.

I ordered a couple of 1 piece CF drive shafts from the "Drive Shaft Shop" in North Carolina for some of my very early PP Boss 302 cars and had a great experience from both a service and quality standpoint.

With the significant reduction in weight regarding the rotating mass of a one piece CF unit compared to a much heavier 2 piece steel unit I could definitely feel a difference when I came to full acceleration and smoothness.

I would definitely recommend the Drive Shaft Shop going forward.

Good luck going forward.

No I ordered SFI cert. part# DS48?

That’s unsat! Mine was packaged similarly, but not used for batting practice en route. Hope it works out.

Man that's so F'd how QA1 don't give a damn how they package their 'meticulously engineered and manufactured pieces of art'. And the vendor is just as guilty for not repackaging better prior to shipping it out! Minimum wage workers

I ordered mine from Steeda. It shipped from QA1. Arrived in the same style shipping box as yours, just not beat to crap.

They won't get business from me until they learn how to ship a product correctly. My life is too busy to deal with shipping hassles and returns.

That's ridiculous. And I agree with blackout...if that thing was ever in CJPP's hands (as opposed to just drop shipped from the manufacturer when ordered), then they are both equally guilty. That's pretty aggravating from a company like that over a product like that! Certainly not MGW standards, that's for sure. Which is what I would tend to expect from a company over a product such as a CF driveshaft. Come on dude!

I also recall another thread where one of us on here was having a horrible time getting a response or return contact from QA1.

Interesting option. Do we know if these guys are doing anything for our car? I've heard of these guys before. They are right down the road from where I grew up; may go visit next time I'm home!

*Edit* They do have a driveshaft on their site for our car!

All they have to do is wrap it entirely in bubble wrap, put the ends in foam, square in shape to match the box dimensions, and ship the damn thing. Why companies cheap out on packaging is crazy, especially on an expensive and sensitive product.

Cjpp said they won't even get it back and ups will detroy the shaft. I guess is part of the procedure.

@Niz55 ...keep us updated. I may roll the dice and give my hometown boys at Driveshaft Shop a shot when the time comes.

I was also looking into the drive shaft but they had some negative reviews of people having vibration problems. This was on gt models.
