Hinson Motorsports 3.5" aluminum torque-tube driveshaft for 1997-2019 Corvettes (C5, C6 and C7). Machined from 3.5" x .125"-wall 6061-T6 aluminum with our own precision-welded ends, it's a major strength-and-NVH upgrade over the factory shaft and is rated well past 1,000 hp. Select your model year, transmission, and coupler configuration to get the exact driveshaft built for your car.
Built to order: Most driveshafts are built to order — please allow 5-10 business days for manufacturing time.
Why builders choose it
- Huge strength margin — 6061-T6 aluminum torque tube rated past 1,000 hp for high-power and forced-induction builds.
- Smoother, stiffer driveline — tight tolerances cut flex and vibration versus the factory setup.
- Two coupler configurations — keep the OEM-length shaft that retains your rubber couplers, or step up to the coupler-delete length that eliminates them for a stiffer, more direct connection.
- Exact fitment — built to your year and transmission (automatic or manual).
Choosing your configuration
- OEM Length (Retains Rubber Couplers) — uses the factory-style rubber couplers or billet HINSON couplers and OEM-length driveshaft bolts (our 6035 bolt kit, not included). The most direct drop-in replacement.
- Coupler Delete — a longer shaft that removes the rubber couplers entirely for maximum stiffness; coupler-delete-length bolts included (our 6040 bolt kit).
