8.5lbs lighter than your stock steel driveshaft, these Ford Racing Aluminum Driveshafts reduce drive-train loss and free up valuable rotation weight. They are actually stronger than the stock steel. They also smooth the ride drastically and are an excellent addition if you have upgraded gears.

linky no worky Erick,,,,, aslo if you can reduce 15Lbs rotational mass that will equate to a .1 of a second of your quarter mile.
