Shaftec’s New To Range features 19 new driveshafts

Birmingham-based automotive remanufacturer Shaftec Automotive has revealed its latest additions to its New To Range collection, with 19 driveshafts being added for the month of March.

Key applications for the new driveshafts include the FO415R for the Ford Kuga II (DM2) (2014 onwards), the HY227R for the Hyundai Tucson (2015 onwards), and the VA303R for the Vauxhall Astra (2015 onwards).

Shaftec’s latest additions follow the 139 new parts that joined the New To Range collection in February, which featured 119 CV joints, 16 driveshafts, four brake calipers, and three steering racks.

Shaftec Marketing Manager Adrian Kitchen said: “Driveshafts are essential components in vehicles, and our remanufactured options provide a cost-effective and sustainable choice for the market. Each of our driveshafts undergo rigorous testing and refurbishment to meet or exceed original specifications, offering the same reliability and durability as new ones, but at a lower cost.”

Here are some signs that your driveshafts might need changing:

·       Inspect the driveshaft: Look for any signs of damage, such as cracks or dents.

·       Check the inner/outer joints: Check for any play or looseness.

·       Check for vibrations: If you feel any vibrations while driving, it could indicate a damaged driveshaft.

·       Listen for noises: If you hear any clunking or grinding noises while driving, it could indicate a damaged driveshaft.

Shaftec always recommends that if drivers notice any issues with their vehicle, they seek the advice of an expert.
