Product Description
Stop front axle failures before they stop you. The FLEECE FPE-TUFSHAFTS are Hy-Tuf steel replacement shafts engineered for 2001–2010 GM 2500/3500 4x4 trucks with the 9.25" AAM front axle. They eliminate the weak split passenger shaft and short driver shaft that are prone to breakage under towing, big tires, and added power—delivering the durability your Duramax deserves.

- Hy-Tuf construction for exceptional torsional strength and impact resistance
- Direct-fit upgrade replaces the OE split/passenger and short/driver shafts
- Built to handle lifted trucks, larger tires, towing, and hard launches
- Designed and supported by Fleece Performance Engineering

Do these work with stock knuckles and hubs?
Yes. TufShafts are a direct replacement for the factory 9.25" AAM axle shafts and retain OE knuckles, hubs, and seals.
Are they street-legal and tow-friendly?
Absolutely—TufShafts are designed for daily driving, towing, and off-road use, providing stronger, more reliable shaft assemblies than stock.
