Driveshaft Specialist offers custom Aluminum Driveshafts for nearly every combination of Transmissions and Differential.
Aluminum Driveshafts offer lighter weight. On average we can
remove 30% or more from the weight of a steel driveshaft. This
results in less rotating mass in the driveshaft which can result in better
performance.
The Aluminum Driveshaft also reduces un-sprung weight in the rear suspension. Aluminum Driveshafts offer better high speed stability from the Aluminum tube. Aluminum driveshaft tubes are typically thicker walls which offers the stability but with less total weight. This is very beneficial in Road Race cars where sustained Hi-RPM is experienced.
Aluminum Driveshafts do not corrode like a steel driveshaft.
Aluminum Driveshafts will have a longer lifespan than a steel driveshaft.
Combined with the Spicer XL U-Joint which has a lifespan typically over
100,000 miles it might be the last driveshaft you ever purchase.
The Spicer XL U-Joint is, in our opinion, the best U-Joint made. The Spicer XL U-Joint is a sealed maintenance free U-Joint. It will never sling grease all over the bottom on your car as a greaseable U-Joint will do. Plus you never have to get under the car and put grease in them. The Spicer XL is also the strongest U-Joint that we know of. We have never seen a Spicer XL with a broken cross or trunion. We very strongly recommend using this U-Joint. We offer these for sale if you would like to upgrade the U-Joints in your current driveshaft. Very Affordable.
Performer Aluminum Driveshaft Pricing
Call for assistance on choosing the right Aluminum Driveshaft for your application. For assistance on determining the correct length go to Measure Sheets.
Transmission Yoke is not included in our pricing. We price each driveshaft individually so you pay for exactly what you need.
Parts Warning: There are a lot of cheap offshore yokes flooding the market. If a shop has a great deal on driveshafts or transmission yokes, You had better ask what you are getting. Ask if it has "CAM" on it. This is a Chinese Auto Manufacturing product and you will get exactly what you paid for. Cheap Crappola!
