Driveshaft – Aluminum, 4″ OD, 1350 Series (Mustang GT | V8 | 2005-10)

Replacing a worn or damaged driveshaft on a 2005 - 2010 Ford Mustang (GT) V8? The 10001767 delivers a direct-fit, performance-grade solution. Constructed from aluminum tubing at 4" OD OD, this shaft is balanced as an assembly, minimizing residual imbalance that causes floor vibration and premature U-joint wear. Manual & Auto configuration is pre-set to match the factory application.

Specifications -- 10001767

Fitment Verification

The 10001767 is designed specifically for the 2005 - 2010 Ford Mustang (GT) V8 with Manual & Auto drivetrain. Before ordering, confirm that your vehicle's transmission output yoke and rear axle pinion yoke both specify Series 1350 U-joint geometry. Overall collapsed length is 52.598" -- verify against the existing shaft with the vehicle at ride height.

• Confirm year, model, and cab/bed or wheelbase against the product listing
• Check both yoke series before ordering to avoid mismatch
• Inspect carrier bearing and crossmember condition if the vehicle had previous vibration issues

Performance & Material Advantages

Aluminum driveshafts like the 10001767 offer measurable benefits over steel replacements in street and light-performance applications. Reduced rotating weight decreases drivetrain inertia, improving acceleration response and reducing stress on transmission output and axle pinion bearings. The 4" OD OD provides ample torsional stiffness for the 1350 joint series torque rating, while maintaining the clearances required by the factory undercarriage.

• Lower unsprung rotational mass vs. steel OEM shaft
• Precision dynamic balance reduces NVH (noise, vibration, harshness)
• Corrosion-resistant surface -- no annual undercoating required
• Direct bolt-in: no transmission crossmember or tunnel modification

Installation Overview

Installing the 10001767 requires standard hand tools and a floor jack. Support the rear axle independently before removing the factory shaft. Match-mark the rear yoke before removal so the new shaft can be phased identically. Torque all flange bolts or U-bolt nuts to the vehicle manufacturer's specification and re-check after the first 50 miles.
