About this product
Your driveshaft is only as stable as the bushings holding it in place. And factory rubber wasn’t built to last.
The OEM driveshaft carrier bushings are made from soft rubber that compresses, wears, and eventually breaks down. As they deteriorate, the driveshaft can lose alignment between its front and rear sections—introducing vibration, drivetrain lash, and unnecessary wear on universal joints. The OVERTAKE Driveshaft Carrier Bushings replace those weak points with CNC machined stainless steel bushings that hold everything firmly in position for smoother, more consistent power delivery.
What You’ll Feel
- Smoother acceleration with reduced drivetrain lash
- More direct throttle response under load
- Less vibration as driveshaft alignment improves
- Tighter, more connected feel through the entire drivetrain
Key Features
- CNC Machined Stainless Steel: Built for long-term durability and consistent alignment.
- Direct Replacement: Replaces worn OEM rubber carrier bushings.
- Corrects Driveshaft Misalignment: Helps maintain proper alignment between driveshaft sections.
- Reduces U-Joint Wear: Less carrier movement means less stress on universal joints over time.
- Minimal to No Added NVH: Designed to improve precision without making the car feel harsh.
The Details
The driveshaft carrier bearing sits at the center of the driveshaft, supporting and aligning the front and rear sections. Factory rubber bushings mount this carrier to the chassis, but they’re designed for cost and comfort—not longevity or precision. Over time, they compress and deteriorate, allowing the carrier to shift and creating misalignment between driveshaft sections. That misalignment can stress universal joints and contribute to slop and vibration.
The OVERTAKE Driveshaft Carrier Bushing Kit replaces the OEM rubber with stainless steel bushings that maintain proper alignment under all conditions. The result is a driveshaft that stays where it should, smoother power delivery, and less long-term wear on drivetrain components.
Pro Tip: Pair these bushings with the OVERTAKE Driveshaft Lockdown Kit for a complete driveshaft stability upgrade.
Installation Notes
- Direct replacement for the OEM driveshaft carrier bushings.
