2019 Redeye
Well folks im at a cross roads . I'm a bit irritated and leary about the 1 piece CCI driveshaft I have in the car . It starts to vibrate at 120 mph and my car is capable of 140+ in the 1/4 mile . It's just a matter of time before something breaks . So do I sell a kidney and get the mark Williams 2 piece or get the less expensive demon 2 piece .......

How are Demon DS holding up? $2200 for a stock part is a lot to me.

The driveshaft situation in Hellcat world is a confounding one. The Redeye (as far as parts and pieces go) is a Demon minus a few particulars. It would be strange to think that the current production line version of the RE driveshaft would vary in any way from the some 3000+ so called Demon versions. For that matter... is it even conceivable that they would produce more than the one version for all Hellcats at this point? People continue to throw away stock drive shafts because the 2015 versions turned out to not be up to the task. That mistake has enriched the coffers of DSS and others substantially. The only advice I can give when it comes to parts choices is to make a honest evaluation of where you’re likely to go in the future. For you... I would go with the strongest most expensive MoFo in existence in there 😂

From what I have researched and read the redeye with factory 3.09 gears gets the demon driveshaft and the redeye with the 2.62 gears gets the regular driveshaft. M6 cars have their own also . The only problem is I haven't seen them in person so it's only what I've read .

I agree with most of this ( not the expensive part lol). As far as I can tell there are 3 different driveshafts for challengers
1- demon and redeye with factory 3.09 gears
1- hellcat and redeye with factory 2.62 gears
1- M6 cars

But this is only what I have read . I would love to check out a few different redeyes to confirm .

Hey Mark
If you get a chance can you get the part number from your driveshaft? You have a 2.62 car .
