This driveshaft fits any cab and bed combination (Regular\/Quad\/Crew\/Mega Cab, Long and Short Bed). Use this driveshaft to upgrade your existing one piece driveshaft or to convert your two piece driveshaft into a heavy duty one piece. We will need you to measure for the driveshaft to verify proper fit. Measuring is very easy to do - just follow the diagram below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDodge Ram driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM two piece shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum 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 Life1410 u-joint - the same one that comes in a brand new truck. 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. Most of the OEM 1 pc aluminum shafts are only 0.083 Inch thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting the u-joint in place with a strap kit. 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\u003eThis is a 100% new 5 inch aluminum driveshaft including a new transfer case slip yoke. This is an all new direct replacement driveshaft. All you have to do is remove your old shaft and bolt up the new shaft.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou won't be disappointed with your Ram 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.\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 Inch OD\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/tube-diameter-reference-page\" title=\"Measuring Guide Tube Diameter\" 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.

This driveshaft fits any cab and bed combination (Regular\/Quad\/Crew\/Mega Cab, Long and Short Bed). Use this driveshaft to upgrade your existing one piece driveshaft or to convert your two piece driveshaft into a heavy duty one piece. We will need you to measure for the driveshaft to verify proper fit. Measuring is very easy to do - just follow the diagram below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDodge Ram driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM two piece shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum 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 Life1410 u-joint - the same one that comes in a brand new truck. 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. Most of the OEM 1 pc aluminum shafts are only 0.083 Inch thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driveshaft comes fully assembled, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting the u-joint in place with a strap kit. 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\u003eThis is a 100% new 5 inch aluminum driveshaft including a new transfer case slip yoke. This is an all new direct replacement driveshaft. All you have to do is remove your old shaft and bolt up the new shaft.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou won't be disappointed with your Ram 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.\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 Inch OD\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/actionmachineinc.myshopify.com\/pages\/tube-diameter-reference-page\" title=\"Measuring Guide Tube Diameter\" 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.

When you need a driveshaft that is lightweight, can handle higher torque loads and can give you a nice polish finish, then consider an Action Machine aluminum driveshaft. The Action Machine aluminum driveshaft is ideally suited for street rods, show cars, race cars and as OEM aluminum replacements. While other driveline shops may use .065" wall or .083" wall tubing for their aluminum driveshafts, our volume purchasing allows us to use .125" wall tube for the same price as the thinner tube. You have the best in aluminum performance no matter your application.

    Heavy Duty 5 Inch Aluminum Driveshaft

    This driveshaft fits 1997 to 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 4 Wheel Drive trucks. This driveshaft fits any cab and bed combination (Regular/Quad/Crew/Mega Cab, Long and Short Bed). Use this driveshaft to upgrade your existing one piece driveshaft or to convert your two piece driveshaft into a heavy duty one piece. We will need you to measure for the driveshaft to verify proper fit. Measuring is very easy to do - just follow the diagram below.

    Dodge Ram driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures. Countless customers complain of their OEM two piece shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures. Our Aluminum eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft.

    This driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer Life1410 u-joint - the same one that comes in a brand new truck. 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. Most of the OEM 1 pc aluminum shafts are only 0.083 Inch thick.

    The driveshaft comes fully assembled, balanced and ready to bolt in. Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting the u-joint in place with a strap kit. 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.

    This is a 100% new 5 inch aluminum driveshaft including a new transfer case slip yoke. This is an all new direct replacement driveshaft. All you have to do is remove your old shaft and bolt up the new shaft.

    You won't be disappointed with your Ram 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.

    Quality Aluminum Tubing vs. Thin wall Swedged Tubing

    Action Machine Inc.:
    Heavy Duty Tubing
    The Others:
    Thin Wall Swedged Tubing

    The Action Machine driveshaft is a heavy-duty driveshaft made to last. You will find cheaper Ram aluminum driveshafts on the internet but that is what they are – cheaper in price and quality.

    AMI aluminum vs Swedged driveshaft

    When you see other aluminum driveshafts with tubing that is bigger in the middle and smaller at the ends, that is a thin wall 0.075 inch aluminum which is light duty OEM material. 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. You can’t compare the quality, durability and life you will get from our driveshaft to other lower cost driveshafts out there.
