The stock center support bearing carriers hold the driveshaft in place with a layer of thin rubber. While thats great for making sure no NVH makes it to the cabin, it doesnt hold up over time to driveshaft vibrations caused by worn u-joints and heat caused by bearing friction and proximity to the exhaust. They also sag over time, misaligning the shaft and accelerating wear on the u-joints.
Our upgraded driveshaft carriers restore and maintain alignment at all times. The stronger bushing design keeps the bearing firmly centered in the carrier during rapid loading, maintaining torque delivery and driveshaft alignment, resulting in more direct driveline response under all conditions.
Benefits as described by our customers include:
- More direct throttle response
- Firmer, more direct shifts
- More instantaneous launches
- Reduction in vibration due to driveshaft misalignment and/or rubber deterioration
- Smoother low-speed on/off throttle behavior (1st gear in parking lots)
