    I am running that one one ttora. Had it on at least 1k miles and I like it. It vibes a tad between 60-68 I think. It's bearable. But I want to put some rubber between it and the mount to soften it. For those of you that are 4x4, you can upgrade to that pillow block bearing. For us 2wd guys, you will have to have a driveline shop add a slip joint on the rear piece of the driveshaft.

    And I'm pretty sure the driveshaft doesn't get up to those rpms. That would be about 75 revolutions a second. The engine may be at 4500 rpm but the tranny is at even less, and the driveshaft even less than the tranny.
