Custom Driveshafts
Action Machine builds custom steel and aluminum driveshafts for race cars, heavy-duty trucks, and modified vehicles. Our engineers optimize designs for strength and balance, using high-quality materials to exceed OEM specifications. Each shaft undergoes precision balancing to eliminate vibration, ensuring smooth performance for demanding applications.
Driveshaft Repair
We repair damaged driveshafts with worn U-joints, dented tubes, or failed carrier bearings. Technicians restore functionality by replacing components or modifying shaft geometry, often at half the cost of replacement. Services include straightening, balancing, and upgrading to heavy-duty parts for improved durability.
Aluminum Conversion
Convert factory two-piece steel driveshafts to lightweight aluminum units. This eliminates carrier bearing failures and reduces rotational mass by 30-40%, improving efficiency and reducing vibration. Custom conversions available for Duramax, Dodge, Ford, and Chrysler applications.
U-Joint Replacement
Replace worn U-joints with heavy-duty options for 1310, 1330, and 1350 series applications. Technicians inspect yoke wear and alignment to prevent premature failure. Available for both greasable and non-greasable designs, with conversion joints for mismatched components.
Driveshaft Balancing
High-speed balancing eliminates vibrations using precision equipment. We balance single and multi-piece assemblies together to address system-wide harmonics. Process includes straightening tubes, replacing worn components, and optimizing weight distribution for smooth operation at all RPMs.
