1 cm shorter and thinner drive shaft for many VW, Audi and Skoda models. Absolutely necessary when lowering! The shaft is made of high-strength steel and manufactured in one piece and is a complete drive shaft. Thus also suitable for high-performance engines.
Thanks to our thin and extremely stable transmission / drive shaft, you avoid many problems at the body that usually appear during a chassis lowering.
It is important that when installing the new drive shaft, no excess pressure is created in the sleeve. In our installation instructions you can see how to prevent this (click here).
By installing the thinner drive shaft, you save yourself reworking the body. That saves you time and nerves.
Important!! Our short and thin drive shaft is only suitable if the dimension from the wheel center to the original fender edge is 31.5cm or smaller. If this distance is higher, the shaft is too short for your vehicle.
This is how you measure the distance from the fender edge to the wheel center:

- What exactly is the point of having a shorter driveshaft?
As a result of lowering, the axle geometry changes and the shaft presses against the wheel bearing, exposing it to high levels of wear and, in the worst case, destroying it. It is therefore imperative to depressurize the component. This is done by shortening the trees.
- Do reinforced driveshafts also have reinforced ball joints ?
The wheel-side ball joints are also reinforced, but the inner ball joints are like the standard ball joints.
- Why are two bags of grease included in the delivery?
The grease is included in the scope of delivery so that it can be regreased or if the gearbox flange is open at the rear. In this case, grease must still be applied there. If the shaft is supplied completely closed, no grease is required, as this has already been done.
- Why are no shims (OE: 1K0407357D) for the mounting supplied as they are original?
We do not supply the shims, as we install the latest version of the bellows. With these, the shims are no longer required.
