UNITRAX DRIVETRAIN-The Real truth

**Richie-SRT10** · January 12th, 2008, 06:37 PM

Bad news travels fast. Good news about a Viper Vendor travels faster.

I have had several positive experiences in the past dealing with Unitrax. With reasonably priced products to upgrade our cars & excellent support should a tech question arise they are fantastic to work with.

My problem at Bradenton was I broke the Dana yoke. Here is a description of what I did to upgrade my car so this problem does not occur again.

The original yoke is Dana's 1350 cast steel yoke that UNITRAX cold stabilizes for additional strength. The original yoke requires strap kits to secure the universal joint. The new yoke is 1350 series billet steel and it uses u-bolts for added dependability. This new yoke is a significant upgrade over the original yoke.

Attached are a few photos of the new 1350 series billet steel yoke that UNITRAX can now offer for the VSP-SRT half shafts.

Heffner is installing them on Monday if they are delivered on time. Also Darius is going to be there on Monday dropping off the original Busa Slayer. I am hoping to get a chance to meet him since it does not look good for me going tomorrrow morning to his stunt show.

Nice piece. Price?

I've dealt with Devin at Unitrax many times....good stuff ....good pricing...no viper tax...

I'm surprised they aren't listed with these instead of those steel straps.

Very nice Rich, I always thought the stock straps were kinda flimsy. Those look top notch! Hope you can make it to Lakeland tomorow, if not I'll see you at Heff's on Monday if your parts come in.

Nice piece! I have a pic of my from Atco raceway holding the front of my Yoke snapped in half from ym 12 olt on my GTO with the Moroso U-Joint straps still intact-lol. I now have a Currie 9-Inch all done up in there with billet Yokes. I agree, the Viper ones look flimsy (spelling?) and are not even end capped into place all the round.

As for Unitrax, I dealt with them as I have the 1500 HP or whatever the highest shafts I could get in case I go more power as well as the safety loops. Unitrax helped me personally AFTER the sale and get great ratings from me. I would definately buy from them again as they listened very well and sent me an "extra" part I needed for my application and yes-NO VIPER TAX! Looks like a solid part!
