How long is the shaft without joints?

the wave has a length of 707mm without joints

What exactly is the benefit of a shorter drive shaft?

Lowering changes the axle geometry and the shaft presses on the wheel bearing, exposing it to high wear and possibly destroying it in the worst case. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to relieve the pressure from the component. This is done by shortening the shafts.

Do the reinforced drive shafts also have reinforced joints?

On the wheel side, the joints are also reinforced, but the inner joints are like the standard joints.

Why are two bags of grease included in the package?

The grease is included so that additional greasing can be done, or if the gearbox flange is open at the back. In this case, greasing must still be done there. If the shaft is delivered completely closed, greasing is not necessary as it has already been done.

Why are no backing plates (OE: 1K0407357D) included for mounting as they are originally available?

We do not supply the base plates, as we install the latest version of the bellows. With these, the base plates are no longer needed.

What is the length of the drive shaft?

If you want to know the length of our drive shaft, please first look directly at the product description of the respective item. If a shaft measurement is specified there, you will find the length exactly at this point (as a pure shaft measurement).For some drive shafts, no shaft measurement is provided in the product description. In these cases, the design of the shaft is entirely guided by the components and installation conditions described in the article. This means: The drive shaft is 100% suitable if the conversion is carried out exactly as described in the article – with the mentioned combination of axle, engine, transmission (and the other specifications from the description).Additionally important: For many drive shafts, we require the vehicle identification number (VIN), which must be provided to us. Thus, after the order, we have a clear assignment and can ensure that you receive exactly the drive shaft that perfectly fits your vehicle and setup.
