Description
Swapping transmissions or building a custom drivetrain in your '80-'83 Corvette demands a driveshaft built to your exact specifications. This custom steel driveshaft delivers the precise fitment and robust construction required for serious performance applications. The 31-spline configuration provides superior engagement and torque capacity over lesser designs, while the forged steel slip yoke ensures durability under demanding conditions.
The 3" OD x .083" wall steel tubing strikes the optimal balance between strength and weight. Steel's inherent toughness handles high torque loads and eliminates the flex issues that can plague aluminum alternatives in high-horsepower applications. The bolt-on cap design at the rear ensures secure retention under hard launches and high-RPM operation, while factory high-speed balancing eliminates vibration across the entire RPM range.
Every driveshaft is application-specific and professionally balanced before shipment. The black paint finish provides corrosion resistance and a clean, finished appearance. Because this is a custom-length driveshaft, you'll need to submit precise measurements from your completed installation using the MDL Driveshaft Build Sheet. Simply download the form, take your measurements with the drivetrain fully assembled, and email the completed sheet to info@moderndriveline.com.
