PST Aluminum: Superior Performance and Unrivaled Strength
Precision Shaft Technologies has been offering the strongest and the most reliable driveshafts for twenty years. In any application where you are adding horsepower to your vehicle, whether you are street racing, circle track racing, on the drag strip, or anything in between, you are going to want to upgrade your driveshaft. Our aluminum driveshafts are a great choice when you are looking for high horsepower applications, a cost-effective option, and if you will be using your vehicle on the street (for cruising, not racing). Every one of our aluminum driveshafts are balanced and tested at high speed to ensure no vibrations and that each shaft is race-ready.
Aluminum is The Go-To Option For Low Weight, High Power, and Street-Ready Applications
An aluminum driveshaft is our typical recommendation when a customer needs high strength, low weight, and is going to be running their vehicle in circumstances where prolonged heat may be generated (such as street cruising). The other high strength option that you will find is Carbon Fiber. Carbon Fiber has a higher horsepower limitation, is also lightweight, but Carbon Fiber is not ideal for street riding, where the prolonged heat generated can break down the carbon fiber bonds. Our aluminum driveshafts are strong enough to support up to 2,000 horsepower (in a 4’’ diameter (OD)). You’ll also see faster track times as well as a smooth ride from our aluminum shafts, due to the low weight and minimal/no vibrations.
Additional Benefits of Aluminum Driveshafts
One additional benefit of our aluminum driveshaft is that after taking ownership of our driveshaft, they can be polished to a beautiful shine. If you’re adding a shaft to your show car, then polishing the aluminum driveshaft is a customer favorite. Each of our Mustang driveshafts comes with slip/joints/CV. Our aluminum driveshafts are available in three outer diameters – 3’’, 3.5’’ and 4’’. The 3’’ aluminum driveshaft is rated up to 500 horsepower. Our 3.5’’ aluminum shaft is rated up to 1,000 horsepower. And our 4’’ aluminum driveshaft can withstand up to 2,000 horsepower. The torsional strength of our shafts performs at high RPM as well. PST’s 3.5’’ OD aluminum shaft at a typical length (48’’) is rated up to 8.800 RPM. Our 4.0’’ OD aluminum shaft at that same length (48’’) is rated up to 9.900 RPM. The only driveshaft that we can produce that manages higher horsepower at higher RPM will be our carbon fiber – but keep in mind that carbon fiber is nor recommended for street (cruising) use. If you’re looking for high strength, reliability, cost-effective, and you may be considering street (cruising) use, then aluminum is the right choice.
FAQ:
Should I send in my slip yoke?
Not if it’s a Strange or Mark Williams slip yoke. We have those in stock and can balance based off of one here off the shelf. If you have another type of slip yoke, such as a Sonnax or a stock yoke, then you will have to send that in to us if you’d like to use your slip yoke.
Is the big black rubber thing my seal?
No, that’s the dust boot. You can see the seal between the edge of the housing and the boot. The seal is at the very edge of the housing. For more details about how to measure for your driveshaft, see our Driveshafts 101 page.
Can you polish my shaft?
No, we do not currently polish driveshafts. That is because polishing can be a very personal exercise. Some owners will spend 20 minutes polishing and call it a day, while other owners will polish for hours with multiple buffing compounds. Since expectations vary so widely for what “shiny” means, we have decided to let racers polish their own shafts rather than doing it in-house at our facility.
Do you build driveshafts for lifted 4x4’s?
No, we do not build driveshafts for lifted 4×4’s. We find that lifted 4×4’s wear out the joints and the carrier bearings of the driveshafts very quickly. For that reason, we do not build driveshafts for lifted 4×4’s at this time.
