i am buying some susp items from spohn sfc's lca's ect

i am wondering whats with the front loop they talk about , i know what it does but is it needed ?

i dont mind putting the 40 for it if it is but its a stock 305 going to be doing minor mods to it nothing to major

 

The drive shaft loop keeps the front end of the drive shaft from falling out and hitting the pavement, if the front U-joint breaks (yes it really happens); which then basically pole-vaults the rear end when the drive shaft hits the ground. Total irrevocable unrecoverable loss of control of the car, often resulting in death. Alot of tracks won't let you on them without one. NHRA requires it beyond a certain speed or ET.

A U-joint can break even if all you've got is a 2.8 6-cylinder. More power might increase the chances; but it can hapen no how little power you've got.

IMO it's worth the $40. My money is where my keyboard is: I'm running the Spohn TA for T-56, WITH the drive shaft loop.

 

all i needed to know thannks =)

 

just get it.. you may not need it now but later on, if you break a joint, you will be happy you got it.. i blew the front u joint on my 91 ranger.. smashed up the heat shields pretty good.. luckily i have 4wd.. it was the worlds first front wheel drive ranger tearing up the streets.. lol
