OVERVIEW
The rear axle bar and inner CV upgrade for the 2014+ F80-F83 M3/M4. The Driveshaft Shop developed a set of 300M axle bars along with chromoly inner and outer CV internal components. Using proprietary 1.25″ diameter high-grade 300M bars (stock axle bars are 28 spline), a custom chromoly CV cage and race set, these axles become practically indestructible. The factory outer CV housing is made from a very strong material, so this upgrade is more than enough to handle the 1200 HP rating offered.
This is a send-in service on your own factory axles. DSS tempers and shot-peens the OEM outer and inner housings, installs factory-style metal boot covers on the outer CV (double o-ring sealed), and installs the new chromoly cage/race internals along with 30-spline bars.
