Driveshaft Saver

Fits all Sidewinder & Viper Models

UPDATE.....Around mid December 2020 I began shipping out Gen 2 drive shaft savers. The Gen 2 are longer so the flats can remain exposed. Gen 2 drive shaft savers are 2" in overall length and Gen 1 are approximately 1 5/8" overall length. General consensus from customer feedback is Gen 1 should be installed so washer is flush against the end of driveshaft. If you have Gen 2 install it so the flats remain exposed. In addition to the added length the Gen 2 threaded wedge is a harder material for extra assurance against stripping. 

The driveshaft saver addresses the loose tolerance between the driveshaft and bearing found in brake caliper assembly. The shafts are spinning in the bearing race and as a result the shaft is wearing away. The driveshaft saver installs inside the hollow drive shaft and expands the shaft to tighten the tolerance. The device can be installed with the shaft still in the sled. Installation does require use of a torque wrench to seat the device.  

Please watch both overview/installation videos above prior to installing.

Retail price is $140
