Re: Balance Driveshaft ?

Balance is a good idea.  If the u joints were ever changed and the yokes not 
put back in the original clock position things will be out of balance.  
Remember, in 4th gear the drive shaft spins at engine speed and in overdrive it 
spins faster.

Not only will a good balance give less vibration, the bearings in the system 
will last longer.  The old saw about rear tires not needing balance because 
the driver can't feel the vibration, tends to wear out rear wheel bearings in 
the long term.
