Duramax driveshafts are engineered to deliver exceptional torque transfer and load stability, specifically designed for 2007-2019 Chevy/GMC 2500/3500 models. This 1480 Series driveshaft features a robust 5″ OD aluminum tube, which not only reduces weight but also enhances performance and efficiency. The seamless construction ensures durability, while the 0.125-inch wall thickness provides the necessary strength to handle demanding 4WD applications.
One of the key differentiators of this driveshaft is its compatibility with the Spicer/Dana 1480 Series U-joint, which measures 1 3/8″ cap x 4 3/16″ span. This precise sizing is crucial; using a similar but incorrect U-joint can lead to premature wear or failure. Additionally, the driveshaft length of 74 inches, measured from seal to the center of the U-joint, is tailored for Crew Cab & Short Bed configurations, ensuring a perfect fit.
