4321 Bronze Donating Members 257 Member For: 11y 15d Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Hi, need a new driveshaft for my sedan, has anyone had any luck with torqueline garage? they have two drive shaft types- '800 HP' for $700/pair or '1400 HP' for $1400/pair. Anyone have any opinions or other suggestions? sounds like they are special order & won't make them (or get them made) unless they have 5 orders. Appears to bolt in with no mods. Car has 440RWKW and is not really low (shockworks recommended height). Do I bite the bullet & get a set from diff technics (even though I don't think I need that strong)? .

MBAF Bronze Donating Members 2,156 Member For: 8y 7m 27d Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Why are you replacing it? Snap one? Busted cv? There is money to be saved here as far as pissing in the wind, at that power you prob don’t really need them over a set of genuine or replacement standards 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/95136-fg-driveshaft/#findComment-1687433 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NA_TURBO Member 532 Member For: 9y 6m 2d Gender: Male Location: Mildura Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I'm pretty sure I've read on here somewhere that the Repco driveshafts are stronger than standard. Might be worth trying? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/95136-fg-driveshaft/#findComment-1687437 Share on other sites More sharing options...

k31th less WHY; more WOT Site Developer 29,397 Member For: 17y 1d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 repco are the same strength as standard for cheaper. a good option if you're looking to replace as "like for like" many times over as compared to significantly more expensive variants.
