Default Drive Shaft Spacers

... i was wondering if anyone has this installed... i heard these take out the stress on the driveshafts when the car is lowered?

you shouldn't need it on your ap2. it's already been reinforced from the factory. by the pics, you have a fairly aggressive drop but you should still be ok. mine has been lower than that for over three years, and the drivetrain looks fine.

Had them on my AP1, but I was told you really don't need them unless you are really slammed. Kent's right about the AP2's

if you put these on when your car isnt really low, the axles bind. i feel they are only good if you are near tucking your rear rim.
