Re: Vibrating driveshafts

>an angle in the driveshafs? 

The angle is standard equipment with two piece/three joint driveshafts.
Jaguar is the only one I know of that specifies a very exacting angle
and measurement method. The angle isn't *that* critical, and shouldn't
ever need adjusting unless the unibody gets twisted or someone really
bodges an R&R.

It's not so much that Jag set it up with an angle, as said all of them
run with an angle on the center joint. It's that Jag set it up with
the angle horizontal. Most applications for two piece shafts are in
conjunction with a solid rear axle. In these the angle is orientated
vertically, and is variable with suspension movement.
