O.K. Mini spooled my n/a with a 28 spliner.. best thing i ever did by the way..... buuuuuuuuuuut, my tail shaft has become all clunky like, i no its uni's but i wanna no if it was caused but the mini spool because of the increased pressure in the driveline... if so, would it b better to get a beefed up 1 peice shaft or is the vlt shaft already beefed up... (i have a na shaft if there is any difference)

could be your center bearing in the tailshaft?
when i put my 3.9 geared turbo diff its been smooth and so much better

I will check that too... i have a spare shaft but is it worth puttin in if the spool is gonna destroy it within 6 mnths????????
So i spose the real q is... Does a spooled diff destroy tailshafts(well uni's anyway)???

dump. got the same problem in my vl after spooling it...
should i get another vl or vlt auto tailshaft OR get a beefd up one made up (2 peice as i want my vl to be lower than standerd height)

The spool will eventually flog out the uni's and the seals on both ends of the shaft.

any way around this? a tuffer 2 peice tailshaft should survive longer than what mine has right? (1month)
