Guys, my son has a '14 V6 auto and the drive shaft came apart which I now found out is common on these cars that are taken above a certain rpm on the drive shaft because they aren't balanced.

So does anyone have a stock GT driveshaft that I can get as inexpensive as possible I get his car running, I'm in Dallas tx 75069.

It not covered under warranty because we tuned the car and went faster then the 113 speed limit on the car.

Thanks guys

Really appreciate it!!! I don't think the GT and V6 are compatible, I'm trying to read up on it now.

The stock V6 drive shaft isn't balanced so over 113 the vibration is too bad and destroys the DS.

It's pretty chicken shit that ford did that.

I'd imagine it is balanced but beyond a certain rpm its just to much.

But now you know why the factory limiter was what it was.
