Like the Stang, and the Chevy's, we switch to the balance Aluminum version
and removed the old steel driveshaft. Fortunately for the 2000 model, they
are already stocked and pre balance from the factory. I was amazed the other
day when I hooked up the Lakewood Traction bars and seen the drive shaft,
the spindle, and the small width sway bar.
But it looked like they tacked on a weight for balancing the shaft on one
side.
The Six Speeds, someone has already done it with the 4.7 but I still looking
for the web site to talk to him also.

Don't worry my pretty little DML, it will all be done correctly. I'm
planning
on replacing EVERYTHING from the intake to the wheels. And I will be getting
the driveshaft loop welded on, too. My only concern at this point is finding
a manual transmission that can handle the power. I have an AX-15 so
obviously
that'll be history. I'd really like to shove a 6-speed in there, but I don't
know what bolts up. Money isn't an object, so long as I only have to do this
once. Does anyone know??
