What is the benefit of a 1-piece driveshaft over a 2-piece?

A 1-piece driveshaft eliminates the factory carrier bearing, which can be a common failure point, especially with increased power. This design also reduces the number of U-joints and potential vibration sources.

Does this driveshaft come with all necessary hardware for installation?

This product includes the driveshaft assembly. It is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for a complete list of any additional hardware or components that may be required for your specific conversion.

What is the advantage of an aluminum driveshaft?

Aluminum driveshafts are lighter than their steel counterparts. This reduction in rotational mass can contribute to slightly improved acceleration and responsiveness.

About this part

Product Details

Driveshaft Shop is well-known for building strong drivetrain components, and this 1-piece aluminum driveshaft is a prime example for your 2005-2014 Ford Mustang GT. If you've converted your Mustang to a Magnum XL 6-speed transmission, this driveshaft is specifically designed to handle the power and torque of that setup. It replaces the factory two-piece driveshaft, which can be a weak point under increased power or aggressive driving.

This driveshaft is constructed from a 3.5-inch diameter aluminum tube, offering a good balance of strength and weight savings. Aluminum is lighter than steel, which can help reduce rotational mass, potentially leading to slightly improved acceleration. The 1-piece design eliminates the carrier bearing found in the stock setup, reducing potential points of failure and vibration. The Magnum XL conversion is a popular upgrade for Mustang enthusiasts looking to handle more power, and this driveshaft is engineered to be a direct fit for that specific transmission swap.

When installing this driveshaft, ensure you follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Proper alignment and U-joint phasing are critical for smooth operation and longevity. This driveshaft is a solid choice for Mustang owners who have performed the Magnum XL 6-speed conversion and are looking for a reliable and robust drivetrain upgrade.
