2023 Dodge Challenger DEMON 170 1350 Series Aluminum Slip Shaft DS-DEMON170-4A

Description

Product Name: Dodge Challenger DEMON 170 1350 Series Aluminum Slip Shaft with upgraded performance U-Joints and hardware

Application:  DEMON 170 only

Product Description:

We build each 1350 series driveshaft with 4” x .125 wall Kaiser KDS4–T8 aluminum tubing*, aluminum yoke shaft and spline sleeve assembly, weld yoke, and flange yokes, all components from Sonnax*, upgraded 1350 series non greaseable performance u-joints from NEAPCO, and upgraded hardware with loctite.

All driveshafts are high speed balanced for performance application on our new Coetz Balancer.  A driveshaft balance print out sheet will be provided with each order, giving you peace of mind knowing your driveshaft is balanced within industry standard tolerance.  

IMPORTANT: This application requires additional upgrades: rear cradle subframe bushing kit.

**This driveshaft requires an additional adapter for the transmission flange.  This is provided with the driveshaft and manufactured with 7075 aluminumfor additional strength as well.  We build each driveshaft with aluminum adapter flanges from Composite Driveline and/or SONNAX.**

Please note: It is up to you to make sure there is clearance and nothing to interfere with the driveshaft’s normal functions. Clearance issues, Exhaust interference, rubbing of any kind, etcwill void any warranty.  If there is any clearance issue at all, we would recommend our carbon fiber option.  All driveshafts are high speed balanced for performance application.  

*Due to circumstances beyond our control, the supply chain is very broken.   Back orders are unfortunately impacting all industries with extensive lead times.  We will do our best to purchase all parts as listed by vendor, but from time to time other vendors may be used.  If this is the case, we will give you an option to use the currently available parts, or wait until the listed parts come in.  We only use the very best components in our driveshafts!

Aluminum Tubing:

Sonnax tubing from Kaiser is the best foundation for a driveshaft that’s easy to build and balance.  It’s the ideal way to increase strength and critical speed, whether you’re replacing thin wall OE aluminum/steel tubing or converting from a steel two-piece to an aluminum one–piece driveshaft.

*The tubing material is KDS4 T8, Drawn Over Mandrel seamless, made by Kaiser in Richmond VA. This differs from the 6061 T6 tubing which was previously the only tube on the aftermarket scene, made by Arconic (previously Alcoa). The KDS4 T8 has the same weld-ability and most of the same material properties as 6061 T6, however, in our testing, we found it to have about 20% higher tensile strength. It visually looks a little different due to the different processes the two manufacturers have, and Kaiser’s roll straightening / checking on every tube.
