DSS Dirt Late Model Carbon Fiber Driveshaft 38.5in CC/CC 3.25in OD Tube / 1310 U-Joints

This 3.25-inch outside diameter carbon fiber driveshaft from Driveshaft Shop is built for the rigors of dirt late model racing. Its 38.5-inch center-to-center length and 3-inch diameter 1310 universal joints are specifically chosen to handle the high RPMs and demanding conditions found on the track. The carbon fiber construction isn't just for looks; it's a critical component in reducing rotational mass, which can lead to improved acceleration and responsiveness in your race car.

Using a carbon fiber tube significantly cuts down on the weight compared to traditional steel or aluminum driveshafts. This reduction in rotating inertia means your engine doesn't have to work as hard to spin it up, translating into quicker throttle response and potentially a slight edge when you need to accelerate out of corners. The driveshaft is equipped with 1310 universal joints, a popular and strong size for many racing applications, ensuring a reliable connection between your transmission and rear differential. The center-to-center measurement is crucial for proper driveline angles, and this 38.5-inch length is designed to fit specific dirt late model chassis configurations.

When installing a driveshaft like this, it's important to ensure proper driveline angles are maintained. Misalignment can lead to premature wear on U-joints and vibrations. Always consult your chassis builder's recommendations or a qualified race mechanic to confirm the correct installation and any necessary shims or adjustments for your specific setup. This driveshaft is a well-built component designed to offer a performance advantage through its lightweight construction and robust U-joint connections.
