[QUOTE=Gee oh Dee;691173]I don't remember which threads, but several members who've torn or twisted drive shafts in half have found cardboard inside them. No one has been able to come up with a reason behind it, at least a "for sure" answer that I've seen.




They sometimes put cardboard in driveshafts too dampen the vibrations and for balancing I believe, or thats what I've been told, something like that.
