Driveshaft Shop X6 2000HP Rated Direct-Fit Rear Axles (510451 / 510452) - 2020-2022 Shelby GT500
Upgrade both sides of your 2020-2022 Shelby GT500 drivetrain with the Driveshaft Shop X6 2000HP Rated Direct-Fit Rear Axles. Combining the DSS 510451 left rear axle and 510452 right rear axle, this package provides a matched pair of X6 Rated axles engineered for high-powered GT500 builds that demand substantially more strength than a factory-level driveline.
The Driveshaft Shop developed its X6 Rated Line with fast street cars in mind, particularly vehicles that remain street-driven while also seeing occasional drag racing, road course, or autocross use. Manufactured using premium 300M materials and advanced heat-treatment processes, these direct bolt-in axles are engineered to withstand the demanding drivetrain loads generated by serious horsepower.
Complete Left and Right Rear Axle Package
This package combines both application-specific DSS X6 rear axles for the 2020-2022 Shelby GT500. Part number 510451 provides the left rear axle, while part number 510452 provides the right rear axle, allowing both sides of the rear drivetrain to be upgraded together.
- DSS 510451 - Left Rear Axle
- DSS 510452 - Right Rear Axle
X6 Rated for Extreme Power
The Driveshaft Shop X6 Rated Line was engineered for high-powered street cars where substantially increased drivetrain strength is required. Depending on the specific vehicle application, DSS X6 axles are designed to handle approximately 1,400 to 2,000 wheel horsepower.
For the 2020-2022 Shelby GT500 application, these axles are offered with a 2,000HP rating, providing serious power-handling capability for modified GT500 combinations.
Engineered for High-Powered Street Cars
DSS developed the X6 Rated Line around the demands of fast street-driven vehicles. These axles are intended for cars that need substantial drivetrain strength without being restricted to a single type of motorsport or competition use.
For GT500 owners increasing power well beyond stock output, the X6 axle package provides a purpose-built solution designed to take the increased abuse transmitted through the rear drivetrain.
Ready for Drag, Road Course and AutoX Use
The X6 Rated Line is also engineered for high-powered street cars that occasionally visit the track. DSS specifically developed these axles with drag racing, road course, and autocross duties in mind, making them suitable for GT500 builds that are used across multiple performance environments.
Whether the car spends most of its time on the street, makes passes at the drag strip, or occasionally sees road course or autocross use, the X6 axle design is built around the demanding loads produced by high-horsepower performance driving.
Premium 300M Materials
DSS manufactures the X6 axles using premium 300M materials selected for demanding high-performance drivetrain applications. The axle construction is designed to provide the strength required to transfer substantial power through the GT500 independent rear suspension.
These materials are combined with specialized heat-treatment processes to create an axle package engineered to withstand the abuse associated with extreme horsepower.
Advanced Heat-Treatment Processes
Material selection is only one part of the X6 axle design. The Driveshaft Shop also utilizes advanced heat-treatment processes as part of the manufacturing process, helping the 300M components provide the strength required for high-output street and track applications.
Direct Bolt-In Design
The DSS 510451 and 510452 are designed as direct bolt-in axles for the 2020-2022 Shelby GT500. Rather than adapting a universal axle configuration, each side is engineered specifically around the GT500 application.
The result is a dedicated left and right axle combination designed to integrate with the supported GT500 drivetrain while providing the increased strength required for serious performance builds.
Built for the 2020-2022 Shelby GT500
This X6 axle package is specifically designed for the 2020-2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. DSS identifies these axles as GT500-only components, making them a dedicated solution for owners looking to strengthen both sides of the rear drivetrain.
