Driveshaft – Aluminum, 3.5″ OD, 1350 Series (Mustang GT500 | V8 | 2007-12)

The Driveshaft is a critical component in transmitting torque from the transmission to the differential, ensuring smooth power delivery in your Mustang GT500 (V8) from 2007 to 2012. This particular driveshaft features a robust 3.5″ OD aluminum tube, which not only keeps the weight down but also enhances performance by reducing rotational mass.

Before installation, it’s essential to verify the overall length of 51.654″ to ensure a perfect fit. Measure from the centerline of one yoke to the centerline of the other yoke. A common mistake is misjudging the length, which can lead to improper alignment and potential vibration issues. Additionally, check the spline count and diameter to match the transmission output; this driveshaft is designed to fit both manual and automatic transmissions.

• Ensure the tube wall thickness of 0.120″ is intact to maintain structural integrity.
• Check for phasing marks on the yokes to ensure proper alignment during installation.
• Torque all fasteners to the manufacturer’s specifications to avoid loosening during operation.
• Balance the driveshaft if any vibrations occur post-installation.

This 1350 Series Driveshaft is engineered to handle the torque demands of the Mustang GT500, making it a reliable choice for both street and performance applications. With proper installation and maintenance, this driveshaft will provide years of dependable service.
