We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 u-joint available.  The Aluminum tubing is 5 inch OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque!  It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in.  Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps.  If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below.  It is not common but it is always a good idea to check for clearance issues with the carrier bearing cross member to ensure that the cross member does not need to be removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\nYou won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft.  Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.125 Inch Wall 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/tube-diameter-reference-page\" title=\"Measuring Guide Tube Diameter\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Tube OD)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpicer\/Dana\u003cbr\u003e1480 Series \u003ca title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/8\" Cap x 4 3\/16\" Span\u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriveshaft Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd title=\"Over all driveshaft measurements to be taken from the center of u-joint on one end to the center of u-joint on the opposite end.\"\u003e\n89 Inches - Seal to Center of U-Joint\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca title=\"Driveshaft Length Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/driveshaft-measuring-guide-form-1-piece\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Driveshaft Length)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eSee note below for modified vehicles.\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote for 2007 Trucks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n 2007 is a split year with two truck designs. This driveshaft fits 2007 model year trucks with the new body style (smooth door skin).

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes. In fact, every part of our driveshaft from end to end is USA made premium product – assembled, welded and balanced by our team here in Indiana.

this driveshaft to upgrade and convert your factory 2 piece driveshaft into a heavy duty 1 piece. The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures.  Countless

driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 u-joint available.  The Aluminum tubing is 5 inch OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque!  It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in.  Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps.  If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below.  It is not common but it is always a good idea to check for clearance issues with the carrier bearing cross member to ensure that the cross member does not need to be removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\nYou won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft.  Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.125 Inch Wall 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/tube-diameter-reference-page\" title=\"Measuring Guide Tube Diameter\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Tube OD)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpicer\/Dana\u003cbr\u003e1480 Series \u003ca title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/8\" Cap x 4 3\/16\" Span\u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriveshaft Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd title=\"Over all driveshaft measurements to be taken from the center of u-joint on one end to the center of u-joint on the opposite end.\"\u003e\n89 Inches - Seal to Center of U-Joint\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca title=\"Driveshaft Length Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/driveshaft-measuring-guide-form-1-piece\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Driveshaft Length)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eSee note below for modified vehicles.\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote for 2007 Trucks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n 2007 is a split year with two truck designs. This driveshaft fits 2007 model year trucks with the new body style (smooth door skin).

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes. In fact, every part of our driveshaft from end to end is USA made premium product – assembled, welded and balanced by our team here in Indiana.

Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\nYou won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n \u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.125 Inch Wall 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpicer\/Dana \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.actionmachineinc.com\/products\/5-1410x?variant=30462720837\" title=\"5-1410X Ujoint\"\u003e5-1410X\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1410 Series \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/16 Inch Cap x 4 3\/16 Inch Span\u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriveshaft Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e74 inches Seal to Center of U-Joint\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Driveshaft Length Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/driveshaft-measuring-guide-form-1-piece\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Driveshaft Length)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e See note below for modified vehicles.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote for 2007 Trucks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2007 is a split year with two truck designs.

Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints.

The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1410 U-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5\" OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. \u0026gt;We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a 1 year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\nYou won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n \u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.125 Inch Wall 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpicer\/Dana \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.actionmachineinc.com\/products\/5-1410x?variant=30462720837\" title=\"5-1410X Ujoint\"\u003e5-1410X\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1410 Series \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/16 Inch Cap x 4 3\/16 Inch Span\u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriveshaft Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e74 inches Seal to Center of U-Joint\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Driveshaft Length Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/driveshaft-measuring-guide-form-1-piece\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Driveshaft Length)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e See note below for modified vehicles.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote for 2007 Trucks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2007 is a split year with two truck designs.

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play.

Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below.

The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 U-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5\" OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a 1 year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. It is not common but it is always a good idea to check for clearance issues with the carrier bearing cross member to ensure that the cross member does not need to be removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\nYou won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft.

Once you have replaced the pinion yoke installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the rear u-joint.

Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play.

Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes.

The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 u-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5 inch OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8 inch thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a one year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. You will need to remove the 1410 pinion yoke and install the provided 1480 pinion yoke. This kit includes new seals and a new 1480 strap kit. Once you have replaced the pinion yoke installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the rear u-joint. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\nYou won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if it is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.125 WALL 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpicer\/Dana\u003cbr\u003e1480 Series \u003ca title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/8\" Cap x 4 3\/16\" Span\u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis complete driveshaft kit is an upgrade from the OEM 1410 series driveshaft.

Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints.

The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1410 u-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5 Inch OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a 1 year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch3\u003eYou won't be disappointed with your 5\" aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n \u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n \u003ctbody\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\n \u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e0.125 WALL 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpicer\/Dana\u003cbr\u003e1410 Series \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/16\" Cap x 4 3\/16\" Span\u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriveshaft Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e79 inches - Seal to Center of U-Joint\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/driveshaft-measuring-guide-form-1-piece\" title=\"Driveshaft Length Measuring Guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Driveshaft Length)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote for 2007 Trucks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e2007 is a split year with two truck designs.

The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1410 u-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5 Inch OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a 1 year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch3\u003eYou won't be disappointed with your 5\" aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n \u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n \u003ctbody\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\n \u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e0.125 WALL 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpicer\/Dana\u003cbr\u003e1410 Series \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/16\" Cap x 4 3\/16\" Span\u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriveshaft Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e79 inches - Seal to Center of U-Joint\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/driveshaft-measuring-guide-form-1-piece\" title=\"Driveshaft Length Measuring Guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Driveshaft Length)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote for 2007 Trucks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e2007 is a split year with two truck designs.

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play.

The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 u-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5\" OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a 1 year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch3\u003e\n You won't be disappointed with your 5\" aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\n \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n \u003ctable\u003e\n \u003ctbody\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e0.125 WALL 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n \u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\n Spicer\/Dana\u003cbr\u003e1480 Series \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide -

piece. The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 u-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5\" OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a 1 year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch3\u003e\n You won't be disappointed with your 5\" aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\n \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n \u003ctable\u003e\n \u003ctbody\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e0.125 WALL 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n \u003c\/td\u003e\n \u003ctd\u003e\n Spicer\/Dana\u003cbr\u003e1480 Series \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide -

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes. In fact, every part of our driveshaft from end to end is USA made premium product – assembled, welded and balanced by our team here in Indiana.

Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch3\u003e\n You won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft.

Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play.

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes. In fact, every part of our driveshaft from end to end is USA made premium product – assembled, welded and balanced by our team here in Indiana.

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play.

The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 u-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5 inch OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. It is not common but it is always a good idea to check for clearance issues with the carrier bearing cross member to ensure that the cross member does not need to be removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYou won't be disappointed with your 5 Inch aluminum driveshaft.

trucks with both manual and automatic transmissions. 2007 is a split year so check the specs or vehicle fitment tab for more info because 2007 had two driveshaft designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse this driveshaft to upgrade and convert your factory 2 piece driveshaft into a heavy duty 1 piece. The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 u-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5 inch OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8\" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps. If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below. It is not common but it is always a good idea to check for clearance issues with the carrier bearing cross member to ensure that the cross member does not need to be removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYou won't be disappointed with your 5 Inch aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeld Yoke Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTube Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.125 Inch Wall 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eU-Joint\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpicer\/Dana\u003cbr\u003e1480 Series \u003ca title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/8\" Cap x 4 3\/16\" Span\u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDriveshaft Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e79 Inch inches - Seal to Center of U-Joint\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca title=\"Driveshaft Length Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/driveshaft-measuring-guide-form-1-piece\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - Driveshaft Length)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSee note below for modified vehicles.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNote for 2007 Trucks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2007 is a split year with two truck designs.

Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes. In fact, every part of our driveshaft from end to end is USA made premium product – assembled, welded and balanced by our team here in Indiana.

Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes.

Once you have replaced the pinion yoke installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the rear u-joint. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket.

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes. In fact, every part of our driveshaft from end to end is USA made premium product – assembled, welded and balanced by our team here in Indiana.

so check the specs or vehicle fitment tab for more info because model year 2007had two driveshaft designs. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse this driveshaft to upgrade and convert your factory 2 piece driveshaft into a heavy duty 1 piece.The OEM 2 pcdriveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1480 u-joint available. The Aluminum tubing is 5 inch ODArconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1\/8 inch thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft\/lbs of torque! It will handle even the heaviest towing loads.We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a one year unlimited mile warranty on all parts. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in. You will need to remove the 1410 pinion yoke and install the provided 1480 pinion yoke. This kit includes new seals and a new 1480 strap kit. Once you have replaced the pinion yoke installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the rear u-joint. Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n You won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft. Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if it is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go. \n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-tab-content\" id=\"tab-2\"\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeld Yoke Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum 6061-T6 Forged Yoke\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.125 WALL 6061-T6 Seamless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.0 Inch OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eU-Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpicer\/Dana \u003cbr\u003e1480 Series \u003ca title=\"U-Joint Measuring Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/finding-u-joint-series\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e(Measuring Guide - U-Joint)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eU-Joint Size: 1 3\/8\" Cap x 4 3\/16\" Span \u003cbr\u003ePremium Non-Greasable \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis complete driveshaft kit is an upgrade from the OEM 1410 series driveshaft.

Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes.
