We have developed new "1-Piece" driveshaft loop kits at the request of a local drag racing customer. Instead of bolting around the driveshaft like our traditional kits, these kits are installed around the driveshaft. To install, the driveshaft must be unbolted from the front axle yoke, and the driveshaft loop is slid around the shaft before bolting to the transmission crossmember. New hardware is included to replace your one-time-use axle yoke bolts. Installation is slightly more difficult, but this kit is slightly stronger than our traditional kits with less hardware to fail or loosen during a driveshaft failure. The best part: this kit offers more protection for the same price as our traditional kits!
For less than the price of one tank of fuel, you can protect your truck from thousands of dollars of damage!
It's no secret that 3rd and 4th generation Rams are prone to catastrophic front driveshaft failures.
These failures typically occur at the double cardan joint on the upper end of the shaft, next to the transfer case.
After the driveshaft or transfer case breaks free, the loose driveshaft is likely to come through the cab floor, and/or rupture nearby fuel/brake/transmission lines, causing fire in some cases.
This driveshaft loop will not prevent driveshaft failures but will protect from secondary damage in the event of a failure.
It is still recommended to grease and inspect your driveshaft frequently.
This kit features laser cut, powder coated 1/4" plate steel construction and includes all necessary high-tensile hardware.
This kit is compatible with most lift kits with up to 6" of lift.
