EVO X lightened Driveshaft...save almost 12lbs!!

Recently we sent out our stock EVO X Driveshaft to be lightened. The results were pretty significant. When it was all said and done we were able to shed 11.8 pounds off the stock unit!! and create a simpler two piece driveshaft in the process.

Retail will be $695 and we need your core sent in to us to have it lightened.

The process includes machining of the flanges, welding and balancing of the total unit.

Right now the lead time is 2-3 weeks but I'm sure that will get a little better as we get some cores in here to have ready to go.

Here are some pictures of the before and after driveshaft

The driveshaft is made by a company that makes parts for Nascar teams, all of their products are far beyond proven. I highly doubt it would ever happen but if the driveshaft were to break due to a build error then Im sure they would fix it free of charge.

These should be up on the site pretty soon here.

These are for sale and you can call anytime to order. At the moment we don't have any cores in stock for the EVO X so once your core is recieved it will be up to 2-3 weeks to have the driveshaft made.

For the EVO 8's and 9's we have a couple cores here so when you call and order we can charge a refundable core charge and the whole process will be quicker.

Both driveshafts are made from .065" wall Chromoly tubing.

Feel free to PM me directly with any more questions.
