This rubber generally fails long before the bearing itself has reached the end of its life. Since the center bearing is molded to the OEM carrier and difficult to service, it’s often easier to get a new driveshaft than replace the center support bearing.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eTHE SOLUTION \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThis upgraded unit keeps the driveshaft firmly in place at all times, and its robust construction ensures it will never wear out. The thick bushings ensure the driveshaft cannot move from center, maintaining driveshaft alignment at all times. The 2-piece design clamps around the bearing, making installation and servicing a breeze.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eTHE BUSHINGS\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo options are available for the bushings, both of which are many times over better than the stock bushing. We’ve paid close attention to the NVH levels associated with this upgrade. After extensive design iterations, we’ve come up with custom isolator bushings that separate the carrier from the body of the vehicle and mounting hardware. These carriers substantially reduce NVH levels.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe street bushings absorb most of the NVH from the drivetrain. Some light NVH is possible at some speeds in the form of a soft hum. With a modified exhaust or windows down you’ll probably never hear it.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe track bushings are for those who want no-compromise drivetrain performance. These may create a substantial amount of cabin noise. Not sure which is for you? They’re interchangeable so you can try them both.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eINSTALLATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation doesn’t require removal of the driveshaft.
