Message I remember when I 1st got the Z, circa 20 yrs ago, that Russell from Z1 posted a write-up on his new cv-joint, one piece, steel DS on this forum. He admitted 2 u-joint, single piece designs were better than a worn oem, but still allowed some vibration.

10+ yrs ago, the DS Co., I think from NC had a sale. I got a CF DS from them expecting a u/cv joint arrangement as in a picture on their website. To my disappointment, it came with 2 u-joints. A yr later I finally installed it. To my surprise; it is smooth as silk.

go figure!

I still have my oem unit, which I removed with 53,ooo miles; and for no other reason except having a light CF DS. I
kept it just in case, but i have not needed it.
