Ford Focus RS (Mk3) Driveshaft Center Support Bearing Carrier Upgrade (FRD10A0)

PREORDER. EXPECTED TO SHIP EARLY APRIL. Reduces drivetrain slop Restores and maintains driveshaft alignment Installs without having to remove or disassemble the driveshaft The stock center support bearing carrier holds the driveshaft in place with a layer of thin rubber. While that’s great for making sure no NVH makes it to the cabin, it doesn’t keep the bearing centered well under load, allows the bearing to sag and ruin driveshaft alignment over time, and creates slop in the driveline during shifts and throttle application. Over time the OEM bushing becomes brittle, eventually dry rotting and cracking. Even on the best-kept cars, the stock bushing can start to form cracks in as little as 5-10 years. When the bushing wears and sags, it changes the alignment of the driveshaft, putting more stress on the joints. During rapid loading of the driveshaft (launches, shifts, and quick application of the throttle), the bearing is allowed to travel off-center, introducing slack in the d
