XP Motorsports Introduces Corvette Heavy Duty Drive Shaft Coupler '12mm' design
Corvette Heavy Duty Drive Shaft Coupler '12mm' design
Fits 01 up Z06's and 02 up base model cars, w/larger, stronger, factory driveshaft.
Corvette Heavy Duty Drive Shaft Coupler is a heavy duty driveshaft coupler that addresses a weak link in the factory C5 and C6 setup: the stock rubber torque tube bushing. Our unit is machined from Aircraft Quality billet aluminum, and has strategically ppositioned lightening holes to reduce rotating weight. We then hard black anodized, to prevent corrosion and increase surface hardness. This is the same part as used on our and many race cars. There are actually two rubber bushings in the stock setup...one at each end of the torque tube. For performance street / moderate racing, we suggest replacing the one located at the transmission/differential end only. This one sees much more shock load, and tends to fail first. Leaving the factory rubber one at the other end acts as a dampener.
Hard core racers, looking for ultimate strength, can run two (we run two on our race car).
**Installation is identical to that for the stock part.
****NOTE: This is the '12mm' design, and therefore only fits 01 up Z06's and 02 up base model cars, with the larger, stronger, factory driveshaft.
