M3 E.D.T 150 Pivot Shaft with chromoly collars and end caps.
The stock OEM Harley pivot shaft is weak and with the rise in horse power and torque numbers getting higher and higher, we are seeing more bent pivot shafts. We have also seen the aftermarket heavy duty replacements failing.
This includes 5 total replacement parts.
These will fit all M8 touring models, 2002 to present Twin Cam FLH, and FXRs updated to 3/4 shafts.
WHY E.T.D 150?
E.T.D. 150® stands for Elevated Temperature Drawing process. This eliminates heat treating and secondary operations such as straightening, finish grinding, cleaning and inspections. It can be roll threaded, knurled, and plated. It is produced from AISI medium carbon 4100 series alloy steel.
ETD 150® contains additives for improving machinability. These may be Tellurium, Selenium, Sulphur (.06 max), or others, separately or in combination. Warping, distortion and residual stresses from cold working are reduced during machining. This eliminates heat treating and secondary operations such as straightening, finish grinding, and cleaning.
