Message	That is the only reason the factory shaft is 2 pieces with a center support bearing. Not just any driveshaft shop can build a consistently smooth one piece shaft for a Z32. We tried several with mediocre results including Powertrain Industries before ending up with our current manufacturer that has been bulding our driveshafts for several years now with an excellent track record.
