Because of the visible rust, looks tacky on a finely detailed truck. I can't see mine anymore after the rear end drop, but when it was higher I hated seeing the rust on it.

Yeah the surface rust won't hurt anything, it just looks bad to me on a finely detailed truck that's lifted. But that's just me.

Get a nice alum drive shaft and you wont have to worry about that.

Or drop the truck so you can't see it.

I know there's some others, but I can't remember their names.

Here's a thread I found related to rusted driveshaft painting.
