While this reduces noise and vibration, it causes significant play in the drivetrain under load and can lead to worsened driveshaft alignment in the long term.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"312\" data-end=\"663\"\u003eThe JXB Performance Driveshaft Center Support Bearing Carrier Upgrade replaces the OEM mount with a significantly more stable design featuring reinforced bearing inserts. This keeps the driveshaft precisely centered even under high loads, which is particularly noticeable during rapid load changes, spirited driving, and performance upgrades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"665\" data-end=\"1090\"\u003eMany drivers report a more direct throttle response, more precise shifts, and an overall firmer driving feel after the upgrade. Especially in manual vehicles, the typical drivetrain play during load changes is significantly reduced. Additionally, a worn or sagging OEM bearing can cause vibrations, which are often reduced by the more stable JXB solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1092\" data-end=\"1403\"\u003eThe two-piece design allows for installation without disassembling or removing the entire driveshaft. \u003cstrong\u003eThe system is mounted directly around the existing center bearing.\u003c\/strong\u003e This makes the upgrade suitable for spirited street vehicles, track cars, or vehicles with increased engine power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1405\" data-end=\"1668\"\u003eThe system is available in different hardness levels:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1405\" data-end=\"1668\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStreet\u003c\/strong\u003e is ideal for sporty street vehicles with minimal additional power transmission and fewer vibrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1405\" data-end=\"1668\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack\u003c\/strong\u003e uses significantly harder bushings for maximum precision and directness in the drivetrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1670\" data-end=\"1728\"\u003eSuitable for:\u003cbr\u003eToyota GT86\u003cbr\u003eToyota GR86\u003cbr\u003eSubaru BRZ\u003cbr\u003eScion FR-S\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1730\" data-end=\"1779\"\u003eSuitable for 1st and 2nd generation from model year 2012 to 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1781\" data-end=\"1992\"\u003eNote:\u003cbr\u003eDepending on the chosen bushing hardness, additional noise or vibrations may occur in the interior.
