3.5" Aluminum Driveshaft fitment
I ordered the S60 for the Trans Am. Will I have any fitment issues going to a 3.5" Aluminum Driveshaft? I am running the Assie 3:27 rear now matched up to a 200R4. Running stock torque arm.
Any advice would help.

I have a 9" rear, 3.5 or 4" aluminum driveshaft and 4" intermediate pipe, snug but no issues.

Leaning toward 3.5" aluminum.

Re: 3.5" Aluminum Driveshaft fitment
What kind of setup do you have in your car where you decided to go with a S60? I would assume most people requiring an S60 would need a very strong drive shaft, which is usually a steel or chrome moly shaft. Strength would be my first concern if you have mega hp and traction.

I ordered a 3" steel shaft from PST with their hardened yokes.
