Custom Driveshafts
Measured, built and welded to your vehicle rather than pulled off a shelf. Lifted, stretched, swapped or shortened — if the geometry changed, the shaft has to change with it.
Measured, built and welded to your vehicle rather than pulled off a shelf. Lifted, stretched, swapped or shortened — if the geometry changed, the shaft has to change with it.
Every shaft we build spins up on the balancer before it leaves. That is the difference between a shaft that is straight and a shaft that is quiet at 70mph.
Pattern checked, backlash and preload set to spec, then documented. Gears fail from setup far more often than they fail from load.
Dana/Spicer and Yukon gear sets in the ratio your build actually needs — sized around your tyre diameter and how you drive it, not a guess.
Selectable lockers, automatic lockers and limited-slip units supplied and fitted. We will tell you honestly which one suits your use.
Complete housings built up, trussed and set up ready to bolt in. Rock crawlers, tow rigs and UTVs.
Before you call
Have these to hand and we can usually price it on the first call. If you are not sure how to measure, ring us and we will walk you through it — it takes two minutes.
| Vehicle | Year, make, model, engine and transmission |
|---|---|
| Lift / mods | Lift height, tyre size, transfer case, any body stretch |
| Length | Centre of u-joint to centre of u-joint, at ride height |
| Series | U-joint series if you know it — 1310, 1330, 1350, 1410, 1550 |
| Ends | Flange, slip yoke, CV, double cardan — photos help |
| Symptom | Vibration at what speed, under power or coasting, clunk on take-up |
Straight answers
Usually it is angle, length or balance — sometimes all three. Lifting changes the operating angle at both joints. We diagnose before we sell you a shaft.
Yes, and we do it regularly for out-of-town customers and other shops. Use the checklist above. Photos of both ends save the most back-and-forth.
It depends on tyre diameter, transmission and whether you tow. Tell us those three and we will give you a ratio and the reason for it, not just a part number.
Regularly. If you are a shop that needs a shaft built or an axle set up, call and we will talk turnaround and trade terms.
Prototype note — these four answers are drafted from the shop's stated specialities and need the owner's sign-off before launch. Turnaround times, trade terms and warranty wording are deliberately left out until confirmed.
Driveshaft repair estimates are free. No obligation, no run-around.
