Probably just luck, just like how the Flywheel/crank are balanced as a unit but some Flywheels end up neutral. The two driveshaft halves are definatly balanced as an assembly at the factory and at driveshaft shops that know MBs.

This is the place I had my shaft done: http://www.driveshafts.com/pages/mercedes.html Just so happends that they are 5 min from my office.
