We use PST Carbon Driveshafts exclusively at Killin Time Racing and have for the past decade. I punish my components to the absolute extreme and whether I’m putting down 4,000 horsepower on a drag radial, or winning back to back NHRA Pro Mod World Championships, PST is my choice to continue setting records and crushing the competition.

5 stars

PST Carbon Fiber Driveshafts are my choice when outfitting my race car’s driveline. On both big tires and radials, I use PST Driveshafts in all of my race cars. The fact of the matter is that they survive the brutal environment we put them through and provide my cars with a strong, reliable, lightweight option. With excellent customer service and exceptionally quick delivery on every driveshaft, my choice is always PST.

I just gave you a 5 star review. Just got my 2011 Mustang back on the road a few weeks ago. One of the few 6r80 transmission / 9” rear combinations. We hold the record for the quickest blower car with a 6 speed automatic trans. We just reset it with your drive shaft last weekend. 7.69 @ 175mph pulling the chute early. Car usually traps 180-182. Feel free to use our car on your social media pages.

FAQ:

What is the difference between carbon fiber, aluminum, and steel driveshafts?

When you’re looking to buy a driveshaft, you have three choices: steel, aluminum, and carbon fiber. In increasing order of strength, you have steel, then aluminum, then carbon fiber.

Steel is the least expensive option. However, steel prices have been rising in commodity markets lately (commodity steel prices have tripled since 2020) so there’s less cost advantage to using steel today than there used to be. Steel is going to be the heaviest and least strong option for your driveshaft.

Aluminum brings a significant weight reduction, and a significant increase in strength. Aluminum also will not rust, so if you live in a rainy or snowy area, that’s a huge bonus. However, aluminum can be dangerous. If an aluminum driveshaft breaks, the jagged aluminum edges can rip right through the bottom of your car, risking the safety and life of the driver.

Carbon fiber is the king of driveshafts. Carbon fiber is the lightest and strongest option. It will not rust, and the torsional strength is incredible. It is also the safest for the driver. If a carbon fiber driveshaft were to break, rather than producing jagged edges like aluminum or steel, the carbon fiber shaft will just result in loose fiber strands along the break (kind of like the end of a broom).

One major consideration for carbon fiber shafts is that they are not recommended for street usage (aka, cruising). The heat produced by prolonged street usage can break down the bonds in the carbon fiber shaft. We only recommend carbon fiber shafts for racing applications, not for your daily driver. For a daily driver, we recommend steel or aluminum.

Do I need a new drive shaft?

If you have swapped your engine or your transmission, then it’s definitely advised to upgrade your driveshaft. Any circumstance when you are upgrading your horsepower over the stock horsepower, you should get a new driveshaft.

Are your driveshafts made in the USA?

Yes, all of our driveshafts are made in the USA in our Clearwater, Florida manufacturing facility.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. We ship internationally and have racers from Canada, Bahrain, Europe, and Australia frequently ordering driveshafts from PST.

How can I get free swag? 

Leave us a review! Every month we give away free PST swag to customers who have left us a review. You can leave us a review here.

Are you guys a driveshaft shop near me?

When you’re looking for a driveshaft specialist near you, you’re probably going to find a lot of local repair shops, not high performance driveshaft shops – and there’s as huge difference. We’re based in Clearwater, Florida but we ship nationwide. We even have international racers who depend on PST for their high performance driveshafts. All we need is for you to take a measurement of what you need, and we can build you the high performance driveshaft that you need for your car anywhere in the world.
