Driveshaft support bushing - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

radroach · 01-28-2022, 06:48 PM

After installing the Whiteline and Perrin "Positive Shift Kit" and the "Positive Traction Kit", I looked towards other parts that might go well with these upgrades. I've seen a driveshaft support bushing (that holds the driveshaft carrier bearing) sold by Torque Solution, and wonder if this part would be helpful on my daily street-driven car. I upgraded my drivetrain mounts in order to fix drivetrain slop, and wonder if this would benefit as well. Thanks!

For the price go for it and report back.

I have these and didn’t really notice too much of a difference, I often forget they are installed lol. It may have made my drivetrain more responsive, but only by a micro amount.

If there is any vibration at that point, there are more important issues to address. Spend that money on gas. ...or beer
