Message	Had mine for a little over 7 years. First thing I replaced on the car. No vibration, track or street. Also nice to have replacement u-joint if it does go bad. Ive been in one car when the AL driveshaft broke at the weld (no Z1 AL DS, not sure what brand). That car was putting down 700+, he replaced with Z1 Platinum and been running it since. Good luck!
