What you're looking for is a dent anywhere along it indicating it's been hit by something and bent. It doesn't take much, the tubes used to build drive shafts have surprising thin walls.

ive seen some REALLY ****ed up driveshafts that never caused any vibration lol.


like stuck in the creek, high centered on it and leaving a spiral dent all the way down it ****ed up and no vibration lol
