AWD Motorsports 2pc Aluminum Driveshafts!! In STOCK!!!

With a few locals interested in a lightweight driveshaft solution i decided to have a custom aluminum driveshaft done to test on my RS... I am confident that this will withstand an Evo's abuse.. The single aluminum shaft drops 15+lbs off the entire assembly.. This unit replaces the rear 2 piece section and makes for a 1 piece rear.. The front is still retained stock and just balanced.. Any questions just ask and if i dont have an answer yet i will get it for you..

I have run the driveshaft on my personal car to 166mph and 8.75et w/o any issues of vibration or anything..

Below is a review from a customer also..

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/se...ive-shaft.html

These are 749.00 shipped + your good core.. I can charge a core charge for those of you that dont want the downtime.. When your core is received back youll get refunded the core fee.. let me know.. Thanks!!

Mike






We also Offer the Prop Shaft Billet Aluminum Bushings!!!


Torque Solution Drive Shaft Center Support Bushings will replace the OEM Rubber mounts with billet aluminum pieces. Doing so will allow for reduced wheel hop, improved acceleration and better E.T's. The mounts keep the propeller shaft from moving under hard acceleration, stopping and turning giving you optimal performance 100% of the time out of your EVO.

These mounts fit all years Mitsubishi EVO VIII-IX.. A set of 4 is needed for the stock Driveshaft.. We are offering them for 50.00 Shipped.. If you have our 2pc Aluminum Driveshaft you only need a set of 2 for 30.00 Shipped..

Any questions Pm me.. Thanks!!

Mike

I thought about that but didnt do it.. The next set i will ask the builder to see if he can give me a break down.. If i had to guess atleast 10lbs is rotational and the rest is static.. Its actually closer the 15.9 lbs now with newest parts we have used..

For the core charge, do you need the whole stock driveshaft or just the front section?
