The Driveshaft Shop 1-Piece Aluminum Driveshaft

Reduce your 60ft times and save some weight all at the same time with this DSS driveshaft. What's great about the 2015-2017 Mustang being IRS is that there are no issues with angles, adjustable arms, or ride height issues that can affect the drivetrain. The Driveshaft Shop's 1-Piece driveshaft is the perfect upgrade for your S550 Mustang. It is lighter, stronger, and will reduce rotating mass. This lightweight DSS driveshaft is balanced to 9500 RPMs, has billet aluminum endcaps, 300M Chromoly spline plugs, and forged aluminum U-Joint flange. It's rated at 1000+ horsepower, so it will be able to handle whatever you want to throw at it!

Product Notes

Driveshaft hardware is not included.
The DSS design eliminates the adapter plate at the rear end with a precision ground CV to fit inside the pinion flange just like the factory.
Driveshaft is 3.5" in diameter, giving you plenty of clearance needed to avoid interference with the undercarriage of your lowered Mustang.

Front Adapter: 70lb/ft
Rear Adapter: 45lb/ft

Disclaimer - Driveshaft Hardware

The 1979-2004 Mustang factory driveshaft bolts are installed using a thread locker chemical and are NOT torque to yield. If reusing the factory bolts, clean the old thread locker material from the threads, and apply new blue thread locker before reinstalling the bolts or use new driveshaft bolts and apply blue thread locker to threads and torque to the factory specifications. New bolts can be found here: HDW-4602.
For 2005-2021 Ford Mustangs, it is recommended that you install new driveshaft to pinion flange bolts when removing the driveshaft. The driveshaft to pinion flange bolts are torque to yield and should be torqued to 41ft-lbs.
