Our 1\/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes. In fact, every part of our driveshaft from end to end is USA made premium product – assembled, welded and balanced by our team here in Indiana.

Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints.

Heavy Duty 5 Inch Aluminum Driveshaft

This driveshaft fits 2001 to 2007 Chevrolet/GMC, Duramax Extended Cab Long Bed 4 Wheel Drive trucks with both manual MW3 and automatic Allison 1000 transmissions.  2007 is a split year so check the specs or vehicle fitment tab for more info because model year 2007 had two driveshaft designs. 

Use this driveshaft to upgrade and convert your factory 2 piece driveshaft into a heavy duty 1 piece. The OEM 2 pc driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures.  Countless customers complain of their OEM 2 pc shaft having repeated and expensive carrier bearing failures.  Our Aluminum driveshaft eliminates the carrier bearing for a stronger, more reliable driveshaft. 

This driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1410 u-joint available.  The Aluminum tubing is 5 Inch OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1/8" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft/lbs of torque!  It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a 1 year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.

The driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in.  Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps.  If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below.  Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.

You won't be disappointed with your 5" aluminum driveshaft.  Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is and better yet, how it helps solve vibration and carrier bearing problems - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.

Quality Aluminum Tubing vs. Thin wall Swedged Tubing

Action Machine Inc.:
Heavy Duty Tubing 
The Others:
Thin Wall Swedged Tubing

The Action Machine driveshaft is a heavy-duty driveshaft made to last. You will find cheaper aluminum driveshafts on the internet but that is what they are – cheaper in price and quality.

AMI aluminum vs Swedged driveshaft

When you see other aluminum driveshafts with tubing that is bigger in the middle and smaller at the ends, that is a thin wall 0.075 inch aluminum which is light duty OEM material. Our 1/8 inch thick heavy duty Arconic brand tube is made with an even wall thickness and extra straight from end to end to run vibration free and for incredible torque performance. Some driveshafts with cheaper prices have conversion u-joints that step from one u-joint size to another or greaseable u-joints. Conversion and greaseable u-joints are not as strong as the cold forged solid cross u-joints that we use and have more play. Many of the cheaper shafts have cast weld yokes at each end while ours are USA made forged weld yokes. In fact, every part of our driveshaft from end to end is USA made premium product – assembled, welded and balanced by our team here in Indiana. You can’t compare the quality, durability and life you will get from our driveshaft to other lower cost driveshafts out there.
