What to Know About Prop Shafts

Brush up on these quick facts and features about different UTV parts and accessories before choosing the one that’s right for you.

Why Do You Need UTV Prop Shafts?

UTV prop shafts transfer torque from the engine to the wheels. By upgrading to high-quality prop shafts, you get improved acceleration, traction, and overall performance. Upgraded prop shafts reduce energy loss and maximize your UTV’s capabilities. Because off-roading puts so much stress on your drivetrain, including the prop shafts, inadequate parts wear out faster. But when you invest in better parts, they can better handle the rigors and intensity of rugged terrain, lowering your risk for damage and repair.

Types of UTV Prop Shafts

Heavy-Duty Prop Shafts: These shafts are made from hardened steel or aluminum alloys for maximum strength and durability in the face of extreme off-roading. Heavy-duty prop shafts are ideal for riders who push their UTV to the limit and maybe do regular towing and hauling of heavy loads.

Aftermarket Prop Shafts: There are lots of options when you’re checking out aftermarket parts, including prop shafts. The wide range of options means you can shop according to your specific needs. Maybe you’re looking for improved flexibility, reduced weight, or enhanced torque transfer. Good news is, aftermarket prop shafts let you customize your drivetrain to your exact wants and needs.

Maintenance and Care

You’ll need to get regular inspections and lubrication of your prop shaft/drivetrain system and watch for any signs of wear or damage. This is crucial for ensuring that your rig operates smoothly. Always check the manufacturer’s guidelines and seek a professional when needed.

An upgraded prop shaft can unlock better power transfer to your wheels so you can take on any terrain and up your hauling and towing capacities. Shop SideXSide Source today to upgrade.
