What is included with this driveshaft?

This package includes the 31-inch carbon fiber driveshaft itself. It is set up for companion flange connections at both ends and is designed to accept 1310 series universal joints. You will need to source the appropriate companion flanges and U-joints separately.

Why is carbon fiber used for this driveshaft?

Carbon fiber is chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. It is significantly lighter than traditional steel or aluminum driveshafts, which reduces rotational mass. This can lead to improved throttle response and potentially more efficient power delivery to the wheels in a racing environment.

What size universal joints does this driveshaft use?

This driveshaft is built to accommodate 1310 series universal joints. This is a common and robust size for many performance and racing applications, offering a good balance of strength and availability.

About this part

Product Details

What you get with this Driveshaft Shop package is a 31-inch carbon fiber driveshaft, built for the rigors of Dirt Late Model racing. It features a 2.25-inch outer diameter tube and is set up to accept 1310 series universal joints at both ends (CC/CC means companion flange to companion flange). This is a serious piece of equipment designed to handle the high demands of competitive racing where every ounce of performance and reliability counts.

Carbon fiber is a standout material here because it’s incredibly strong yet significantly lighter than steel or aluminum. This weight savings isn't just about making the car feel lighter; it directly impacts rotational mass. Reducing rotational inertia means the engine doesn't have to work as hard to speed up or slow down the driveshaft. For a racer, this translates to quicker throttle response and potentially more power reaching the wheels, especially during those critical acceleration phases out of corners. The 2.25-inch tube diameter offers a solid balance of strength and weight for this application, and the 1310 U-joints are a popular and well-regarded standard for many performance setups.

When you're building a race car, especially for a demanding class like Dirt Late Model, every component needs to be up to the task. This driveshaft from Driveshaft Shop is a well-built option that addresses the need for both strength and reduced weight. It's designed to be a direct fit for applications using companion flanges and 1310 U-joints, simplifying installation for your race build. Ensure you have the correct companion flanges and U-joints ready for installation.
