PRObuilt Transaxles by the PRO's at Airkewld! Don't be confused by the options, the PRO's make it easy to understand and make choices that will help you shift into the right gear! There are two directions you can go when choosing the right transaxle for your application. Cruiser or for Performance. - by Pete Skiba - PRO since 2002 | Airkewld.com | Updated on 6/3/23

  • If you are building a cruiser, small engine application, the Freeway Flyer transaxle is perfect for your application. 3.88 Ring and Pinion and an overdrive 4th, also known as an 089. Stock rebuilt transaxle, ready for your cruiser to enjoy the open road.
  • If you are building a Performance application, you get the Performance Built Transaxle. Come with the same Ring and Pinion along with the overdrive 4th, but comes with welded gears, steel shift forks, super diff and heavy duty side plate. This set up works well for most whom are building a peppy car with stroked motor application.

Your cruiser will not need the upgraded transaxle and your performance build will need MORE than the cruiser transaxle, so do not base your decision on cost, base it on experience.

a PRO's Take | Product Advice & Recommendation

"If you are building a cruiser application, I recommend factory rubber transaxle mounts from Wolfsburg West. If you are building a performance based application, go with solid transaxle mounts. Any EMPI retailer should have them for your application or the PRO's will have theirs out by Black Friday."

Trust is earned and reputation makes decisions easy. - Airkewld CEO Pete Skiba
