Safety Loop Question

Hey everybody I've got a 12 Roush stage 3 and have the one piece Dynatec aluminum driveshaft. I'm wanting to purchase a safety loop that will work with a different driveshaft from the stock one. Does anyone have any suggestions on safety loops or has anyone installed one that is compatible?

Thanks,
Dave

Stiffler's is the one I use and it is probably the easiest. It mounts to the transmission cross member (three bolts)

Fairly inexpensive and you don't even have to remove the driveshaft to install

Have you had any problems with that one vibrating. I saw some people complaining about it vibrating extremely loud under the body.

Actually yes, mine was vibrating the whole drivetrain because it was misaligned. The shop that installed my new clutch put it back in place. Took forever to diagnose the problem. Once i found out what it was it was a easy fix though.

Just push it up on the mounting bolts and tighten it, done. Let gravity work and it touches the X member and wow, noisy

don't forget about the blowfish bracket. It does double duty.

I'd split the duty and go MGW and Stifflers. The Blowfish is vibey, noisy and retains the stock style shifter mechanism. That said, I'm in an auto version now, so I don't really care
