Description
Drop rotating mass without sacrificing strength. This 5.0" diameter custom aluminum driveshaft delivers the torque capacity your high-horsepower build demands at a fraction of the weight of steel - a swap that improves both acceleration response and overall drivetrain efficiency.
The core of this driveshaft is 6061-T6 seamless aluminum tubing, an aerospace-grade alloy that combines excellent strength-to-weight ratio with superior fatigue resistance. The 31-spline billet steel slip yoke provides maximum engagement surface area for high-torque applications, ensuring reliable power transfer even under hard launches. Premium 1350 series U-joints handle the connection duties - these larger-cap joints are rated for approximately 2,200 lb-ft of torque, roughly 37% stronger than the 1310 series commonly found in factory applications.
Every driveshaft is custom-built to your exact specifications and professionally balanced for smooth, vibration-free operation at any RPM. The 5.0" tube diameter is rated for applications up to 1,200 horsepower, with custom lengths available up to 65 inches measured center-to-center of the U-joints. Whether you're building a dedicated strip car or a street/strip combination, this aluminum driveshaft eliminates rotating mass where it matters most.
This is a made-to-order component. Because each vehicle's wheelbase and drivetrain configuration is unique, vehicle measurements are required before production begins. Made in the USA.
