This coupler-eliminator shaft bolts directly to the factory metal flanges with new grade 12.9 hardware and 12mm bolts, removing the rubber guibo couplers that are prone to deformation and failure in high-horsepower applications. The GMC6A-2C-E uses specially wound carbon fiber tubing paired with CNC billet aluminum ends that are precision machined after final assembly and then high-speed balanced, giving automatic C6 owners a stronger, lighter, more direct connection between the engine and rear differential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon fiber driveshaft tube designed for high-torque, high-horsepower torque tube applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC billet aluminum ends, precision machined a second time after assembly for a true centerline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed balanced to eliminate vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates the factory rubber guibo couplers, a common failure point under hard acceleration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect bolt-in fit to factory metal flanges with 12mm bolts, no drilling or modification required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes new grade 12.9 mounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYear Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMake\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNotes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2006-2013\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChevrolet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCorvette C6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic transmission, torque tube driveline\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMPN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGMC6A-2C-E\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShaft Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbon fiber tube with CNC billet aluminum ends\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBolt Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12mm (grade 12.9 hardware included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransmission\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCoupler Design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEliminates rubber guibo couplers, direct-bolt metal-to-metal connection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBalancing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-speed balanced after final assembly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x GMC6A-2C-E carbon fiber one-piece driveshaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade 12.9 mounting hardware (12mm bolts)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery GMC6A-2C-E shaft ships fully assembled and balanced, ready to bolt directly into place on the automatic C6 driveline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout Driveshaft Shop\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDriveshaft Shop has spent decades engineering high-performance driveshafts and axles for street, drag, and road race applications.
