The Driveshaft shop do heavy duty 700hp and 1500hp options. They're not cheap, but they'll take a pounding! Otherwise someone else with experience on standard vs repco will chime in I'm sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenDoCo I'm getten too old for this s**t Bronze Donating Members 4,509 Member For: 11y 7m 6d Gender: Male Location: A big bridge over a river in South Australia Posted 01/10/15 02:14 AM Share Posted 01/10/15 02:14 AM I shattered a cv a few months back and havesince replaced both shafts with Repco ones and neither have let go yet (YET) with 400kw. Larger shaft dia and larger cv's. As I have a mate at repco, for the price I paid for them I could replace them 10 times before they cost as much as the big hp ones. The big hp driveshaft shop jobbies need new hubs and bearings as well (coz 30 spline (I think) hub end instead of 28) so if you're thinki g of them make sure you factor in that extra expense 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 700hp ones don't, they just bolt up I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
