I was wondering if it was worth it too but wasnt ready to drop the coin for it..... I got lucky and found one at a junk yard a few days ago, got it for $15 bucks and swapped in new u joints. Its probably about 5-7 lbs lighter tan the steel one i cant say I feel a differenc driving but 5-7lbs rotating mass is a lot so idk...

I'm not expecting any changes when I put it in. My brother had a '86 5.0 back in the day and he said of all the minor bolt-on mods he did, upgrading to an aluminum driveshaft was the only one that he felt made an improvement.
I'm making the change because I'd like to drop a few pounds here & there when I can, the current one surely needs U-joints at 160K so it has to come out anyway and it's pretty rusted up & fuggly.
