Drive Saver, for Stellings ext box, from Teague

Has anybody used this part? It is a type of bushing that goes between the companion flange of the drive shaft inside the Stellings extention box. It is suposed to help absorb the harmonics between the drive and engine, caused by the solid engine coupler.
Any info is welcome.
Thanks

Do they still have them? Call first. I have Stellings boxes and the last time I called, they didnt carry them anymore.

I use them and and have never broken a Bravos since installed. They are good insurance especially on a direct drive application. The company is was Globe Rubber (I think it is now Globe Composite Solutions 781- 871-3700) The used to sell only thru distribution. See if Adrian at Teague can special order. The part # you want to is MRD504PR. I paid about $200 ea in 12/03.

Is this the model with 6 holes for the flywheel bolts and 4 for the driveshaft bolts?

That part on my set-up is steal. The part I was trying to find out about goes in the extension box, not the bell housing

Yes on the holes. The Drive Saver thru-bolts thru the flywheel into the crank. Four bolts connect the U-joint to the Drive Saver.

Do you think a drive saver will hold up and fit in that spot? (insider the box ont he bearing carrier)

Good idea and a simpler/cheaper drive saver 4x4 bolt hole pattern. I need a 6 x 4 (6 bolts on the flywheel and 4 for the shaft coupler) but cant find one.
