I made it over 500 miles with my new clutch so I figured what better way to test the grip than to do alittle burnout launch. Grip was good and the air smokey but down the road I noticed when I let of the gas I heard a humming from behind me and when I pushed the clutch in it was a bit louder. Since my back seats are out I can tell its %90 something w/ the rear(%10 error). Now my question is what do these symptoms point towards?? My car is a 86.5 w/ 239,000 on it and a 4.3 rear.

A rear section shouldn't be hard to find. Many people search for a front section when doing a swap.
As I type this, I question how is the resulting new driveshaft find balance? I thought that was why we marked things as we took them apart, to not upset the balance.

I would think id have a broke rear before a twisted DS. DS has about 80k on it and I dont "drop" the clutch so although its possible, I doubt its the shaft. Ill try to make a vid of the noise.

No need to need to get feisty. So if the ds was twisted would it still hum coasting at 5mph? I would think that a twisted shaft would vibrate since it would be off balance but I dont seem to notice any up to 85mph.
