Description
Swapping a TREMEC TKO or TKX into your Sunbeam Tiger creates an immediate driveline problem: the original driveshaft does not fit the new transmission's 31-spline output. This custom steel driveshaft solves that fitment challenge while delivering the durability your performance build demands. Designed specifically for non-flanged pinion yoke configurations, it bridges the gap between modern five-speed capability and classic British sports car architecture.
The 2.0-inch drawn-over-mandrel seamless tubing provides 15% greater strength than factory construction without adding unnecessary weight to your lightweight Tiger. DOM tubing eliminates the weld seam found in standard ERW tubing, creating a stronger, more consistent tube wall that handles high-RPM operation without concern. The 1310 series U-joints deliver proven reliability for street and spirited driving applications, with 1.062-inch bearing caps and 3.219-inch width for proper strength in the compact Tiger driveline tunnel.
The 31-spline forged steel slip yoke matches TKO and TKX output shaft specifications precisely, ensuring proper engagement and smooth operation. Each driveshaft is professionally balanced to eliminate vibration throughout the RPM range -- critical in a sports car where NVH directly impacts the driving experience. The black painted finish protects against corrosion while maintaining a clean underbody appearance.
Because every Tiger conversion is unique, this driveshaft is custom-built to your specific measurements. Complete the driveshaft build sheet with your installed dimensions and submit it to info@moderndriveline.com to start production. Flanged pinion configurations are available -- contact MDL for details. Made in the USA.
