    Default changing drive shaft middle bracket aftering lowering

    ive lowered the vn years ago, today i was reading somewhere in here - you have to change the hanger bracket for the drive shaft.....

    does any know anything about this

    was thinking if the shaft is balanced and universal joints are good you wouldnt have to change the angle of the bracket, this is what universal suppose to do..............but i know someone is going to prove me wrong...

    there are a spacer or 2 between the driveshaft bracket and the body you just take them out when lowered they are like thick washers

    its to ensure the driveline mantains and operates in a straight line,less angles less wear. well thats the theory behind it, working out if you touch the spacers full stop is a different issue.
