Chris, I'm just curious. Are the Bravo couplers much the same as the TRS couplers. That's to say, are they cushioned in some way or solid?

to run a 1000 hp thru a bravo we mostly cross our fingers and pray.not really.we are running bravo xr drives.we check them a couple of times each season and have updated them with some of the newer parts.they hold up pretty well.
