what driveshaft loop?

competition orange · July 2nd, 2009, 06:53 PM

Trying to decide on a driveshaft loop but dont know witch one to get,would like to get one that bolts to seatbelt bolts under car if possible, instead of drilling holes in floor.Let me know what you guys recommend.

there isn't any bolt's in the area you'll need to put the loop (within 6" of front u-joint), sorry you'll have to drill or weld. I have a Metco loop on mine & have no complaint's.

hey thanx casper,i read somewhere that a guy bolted it to his seat belt bolts maybe it was a custom app he made,do you have any clearance issues with exhaust with the metco

just looked up the metco i like that alot its a different design then most other ds loops,i think i'm going to get that one, where did you get yours?

no, it bolt's completely inside the trans tunnel so it's no where near the exhaust, I'll try to find a picture for you.

thats cool, if i weld it where u said it goes,would i still be able to remove tranny without having to burn it off,i just don't want to weld it if its going to be in the way of any future repairs.

this should give you an idea of what you'll be working with & yes you could weld it in with out much trouble IMO (mine's bolted in though)

to keep the driveshaft from killing you if the front u-joint breaks.
