    I'm still rockin the one piece rear driveline too. The biggest issue is gonna be driveshaft speed, not torque/power. I snapped my trans output shaft, and the stock driveline(aluminum) lived.

    so just like everything some have good luck and some have bad. My thought was getting a 1 piece may take the slight vibration i have from lowering it and be less joints to break if adding more power.
    appreciate all the input

    Have you had it balanced? I would start there and also check your pinion angle...

    i havent had it blalanced or anything yet. When putting the drop on djm said there probaly would be a little vibration around 40-45 mph. Ive used the shims and all which it isnt bad id just like t get it even better if you know what i mean but yeah that would be my next step or getting a 1 piece.
