When you're chasing performance, every bit of wasted energy counts, and an unbalanced tailshaft can quietly rob you of power, precision, and long-term reliability.
That's why our Custom tailshaft manufacturing focuses on precision balancing from the ground up. The physics are simple: rotational imbalance creates vibration, and vibration kills driveline efficiency.
The Physics of Imbalance
Tailshafts spin thousands of times per minute. When weight is unevenly distributed — even by a few grams — it creates an outward centrifugal force that:
This loss of control in the rotation increases parasitic load across the drivetrain and results in:
Why OEM Balancing Isn’t Always Enough
Factory shafts are mass-produced and generally balanced to broader tolerances. That’s fine for daily driving — but not for builds running higher RPMs, greater torque, or precise suspension geometry.
In short: the factory balancing might be "good enough" — but performance applications need better.
How GJ Drivelines Performs Dynamic Balancing
We balance shafts as a complete assembly — including welds, flanges, and yokes — using high-speed dynamic balancers. This simulates real-world operation, not just static spin.
Key benefits of dynamic balancing:
We also offer rebalancing for modified tailshafts or those affected by damage, lift kits, or component swaps.

Don’t Let Vibration Steal Your Build’s Potential
Precision-balanced tailshafts can make a noticeable difference in how your car feels and performs.
Whether you're building for drag, circuit or high-speed street use, our team will balance your tailshaft to the tightest tolerances — so your drivetrain operates with maximum efficiency.
