Product Usage Instructions
Installation
When installing the driveshaft, ensure that you are converting from an OE
two-piece driveshaft design to this aftermarket high-performance one-piece
design. Follow the instructions provided carefully for proper installation.
NVH Minimization
To minimize Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) effects, rotate the
driveshaft 180 degrees and bolt it into its new position. Make small
adjustments as needed to find the optimal operating position. Refer to the
Vibration Checklist on our website for more guidance.
Driveshaft CV Clearance Check
After installation, it is crucial to check the Driveshaft CV Clearance to
ensure it falls within the allowed range. Failure to do so may void the
warranty. Follow the recommended torque specifications for the Adapter Plate
Hardware:
- Front: (3 or 4) M12 Bolts – 70 ft-lbs / (6) M10 Bolts – 57 ft-lbs
- Rear: (3 or 4) M12 Bolts – 70 ft-lbs / (4) 7/8 Bolts – 70 ft-lbs
Install the included Round Differential Spacer for clearance. If clearance issues persist, use the Transmission Spacers provided.
Our driveshafts have been designed with the highest quality standards in mind for maximum performance. We have manufactured and precision-balanced each shaft to allow your vehicle to transfer more power to the ground. This driveshaft is intended for high-performance applications where vehicle performance and safety are top priorities. Please note that you are converting from an OE two-piece driveshaft design to an aftermarket High- Performance one-piece design. This change and other performance driveline & suspension components that need to be installed in tandem will impact overall NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) during certain operating conditions. To minimize the effects of NVH we recommend you start by rotating the driveshaft 180 degrees and bolting your driveshaft into its new position. To find the optimal operating position you may need to make small adjustments and evaluate performance during this process. For more information on this refer to our Vibration Checklist located in the support section of our website
