OVERVIEW
The Driveshaft Shop one-piece carbon fiber driveshaft for the F10 BMW M5. The shaft is built from 3.25″ x .170″ carbon fiber tube with two 108mm CVs to mount to the differential, which eliminates any possible pinion angle issues. It weighs approximately 20 lbs, and because the conversion removes the factory hanger bearing the car feels more athletic with smoother power transfer.
Every shaft is balanced on the DSS 9,500 RPM balancer to ensure a perfectly balanced assembly, and it comes complete with an adapter plate to mount up to the transmission plus all necessary hardware for installation.
