Default 1 Piece Aluminum High Horsepower Driveshaft

I have a 2017 Crew Cab 2 wheel drive Silverado.
6.2 with the 8L90 transmission. Don at Action Machine did a great job building my driveshaft. The new 5” aluminum driveshaft with yoke, U-Joints and shipping $715
6.2 with Whipple 3.75 pulley
Lash cap for the High side fuel
Methanol Injection
Kooks Header with Cat Delete Wye pipe
3.24 gears with Truetrac
Engine and Transmission Tune

I hope this helps the guy looking for a high horsepower 1 piece driveshaft

What's your critical speed and overall length? I was told by several shops two piece was the only way to go on our trucks for high horse power/ higher top speed applications. They were very worried a one piece is to long and would be like a rubberband under there.

Bob was easy to work with. I would suggest you call Bob at ActionMachine and give him your expected MPH, tire size, driveshaft length and other important information.
He can give you the critical speed on the driveshaft you are looking for

You'd be surprised how many drive shaft shops I called that couldn't even have a conversation about critical speed. That was my first question to them all and everytime they dodged the conversation.. Except driveshaft specialist

Yours looks great man, and that's a great price too
