Driveshaft Tubing

There is an old adage that says a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. The same could be said about the automobile drivetrain.

One of the most critical, and most overlooked parts of the drivetrain is often the driveshaft. Like the engine, transmission, and rear end, the driveshaft is only as strong as its weakest part. Strange driveshafts are custom made using the finest tubing, weld ends, transmission yokes, and universal joints in the industry. Strange Engineering driveshaft builders are second-to-none and, using state-of-the-art equipment, carefully construct and balance each Strange Driveshaft to within eight-thousandths of an inch of runout.

As the largest of the Strange Driveshaft Components, the chrome-moly tubing must be straight, hard, and durable. Strange Driveshaft tubing (available in 3-inch and 3.5-inch outside diameter) has a wall thickness of .083-inch. It is seamless to ensure minimal vibration and the heat-treated chrome moly construction delivers rugged durability. Welded (MIG and TIG) yoke ends are accurately phased and electronically balanced to further eliminate vibration.
