Alfaholics Front Propshaft Conversion Kit

Prices are exclusive of VAT.

For years the rubber front propshaft coupling (doughnut) has caused racers huge headaches and retirements from races. Doughnut distortion is caused by high centrifugal forces developed at high speeds. This causes the propshaft bush and gearbox mainshaft ball to wear unevenly and consequently the propshaft spins like a skipping rope and the doughnut itself starts opening out, EVEN when using a GTA doughnut cage. Symptoms range from vibrations which lead to broken clutches and bellhousings, right through to the doughnut exploding which can cause huge damage to the drivetrain and tunnel.

We have developed this superb system to eliminate any such problems occuring. It comprises a CNC machined aluminium ring to bolt onto the gearbox output spider which mates to a bespoke front propshaft section featuring a universal joint at the front. We have perfected this system with huge success in our Alfaholics 2.0 Sprint GT Racer for 4 years and have been so impressed we now have it fitted to Max's GTA Replica trackday car as well! You also get the added benefit of much faster acceleration responses to throttle input as you no longer have to wait for the doughnut to wind up under increased torque load. You really feel like your right foot is connected to the rear wheels!

The kit comes complete with the following:- machined 3-pointed gearbox spider, CNC billet aluminium ring, front propshaft section fitted with front UJ, new HD centre support, new bearing and balanced, all bolts and Schnorr safety washers, ready to fit. No other mods necessary. A must for all serious racers!
