Holds the driveshaft where it should be. Isolation dampers minimize vibrations.

The stock center support bearing carrier holds the driveshaft in place with rubber so thin about 20 lbs of force moves it from center to the end of its travel. 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 over time and ruin the driveshaft alignment, and creates slop in the driveline during shifts and throttle application. Over time the OEM bushing sags and becomes brittle, eventually dry rotting and cracking. Even on the best-kept cars, the stock bushing can start to from cracks in as little as 5-10 years. When the bushing lets go, it can lead to excessive vibration and clunking and put more stress on the bearing. To make matters worse, the stock carrier is molded onto the center support bearing, so it’s not easy to replace without special tools.

The first video below was recorded on a 2022 WRX with stock power levels. The 2nd video was recorded on a 2010 STI making around 450whp. The shaft is not well-supported by the soft OEM carrier, so it’s allowed to travel off-center during rapid loading and unloading. The 1st/2nd gen XV Crosstrek uses the same carrier as the Impreza from 2013-2022.

THE SOLUTION

This upgraded unit keeps the driveshaft firmly in place at all times, and its solid construction ensures it will never wear out. The thick bushings ensure the driveshaft cannot move from center, maintaining driveshaft alignment at all times.

THE BUSHINGS

Two options are available for the bushings, both of which are many times over better than the stock bushing. We’ve paid close attention to the NVH levels associated with this upgrade. After extensive design iterations, we’ve come up with custom isolator bushings that separate the carrier from the body of the vehicle and mounting hardware. These carriers substantially reduce NVH levels.

The street bushings absorb most of the NVH from the drivetrain. Some light NVH is possible at some speeds in the form of a soft hum. With a modified exhaust or windows down you’ll probably never hear it.

The track bushings are for those who want no-compromise drivetrain performance. These may create a substantial amount of cabin noise. Not sure which is for you? They’re interchangeable so you can try them both.

INSTALLATION

Installation doesn’t require removal of the driveshaft. The 2-part design clamps around the OEM bearing. The old carrier must be removed, so a cutting tool is required. Below is the installation of this part on a 2008 STI and a 2022 WRX. The exact steps to access the carrier will vary slightly by model, but the removal and installation of the new carrier are the same. The basic steps are:

  • Remove any braces or splash shields preventing exhaust and heat shield removal
  • Remove or lower exhaust in area of center support bearing if needed for access
  • Remove heat shielding covering center support bearing
  • Cut off OEM carrier and remove rubber support material with razorblade, leaving base layer of rubber intact on the bearing
  • Clamp new carrier around OEM bearing

A transformational tool that "reparented" me & empowered me to create a life that I love to live!
Format: Paperback
KYLO has brought the love scriptures to life in giving key ways to live them out in life, to exemplify it. My approach to relationships has changed in many ways. 1-I see the importance of value and honor of others as created in the image of God. God created them to be powerful and make choices. If He thought they were worth dying for why would I see them any differently just because they make choices, live lives, or belief ways that are differently than I do? Understanding more clearly that this does not mean that I will keep someone abusive or disrespectful in my closest relationships . There may be times they lose their close place in my life from their choices, but my love, honor and value for them, myself and others is to remain strong regardless of how they treat me or the messes they make. 2- I am able to approach others with healthy boundaries and not be afraid or their agreement or acceptance of me or my family.I will allow my husband and children to be powerful and set healthy boundaries with others in how they manage their “yes” and “no” even if that means they don’t want to do something that I would like to do .3- I have also grown in my ability to desire to help empower others and not reduce their power trying to control them so that I am comfortable. No longer feeling the need to manipulate situations to always be ‘’like I think they should be or want them to be.” Celebrating others in their uniqueness and choices even if I don’t understand completely. 4-My ability and desire and practice of listening to truly understand others, their heart, their dreams and goals. Not to judge them, not to try to prove my point, prove them wrong or get them to agree with me. I have seen huge shifts in this area of my life as I have applied the KYLO 5 principles taught in this book. 5-KYLO has helped me to understand how God designed me for connection and how childhood wounds that I carried have caused me to have unhealthy relationship patterns, communicate disrespectfully, move out of fear and not love, and have no clue of healthy boundaries- I now feel like I have been reparented and empowered to step into a life that I love to live in and set a better “more Christ like example” to my children! My hope has been ignited, my joy has been increased and my love has been transformed towards GOD, myself, my precious family, friends and the Body of Christ!

A course in true true power, true honor and true love for ALL your relationships
If you have a stack of books you want to read about love languages, boundaries, communication and relationship psychology, set them aside for when you have a few months of free time.... Now, pick up a copy of 'Keep Your Love On' by Danny Silk. I am a long time reader and listener of Danny Silk's wisdom and this little gem is a streamlined reference for many of the things that he passionately believes in and teaches for maintaining healthy relationships - from spouse to acquaintance. Utilizing easy to understand analogies and other tools, Silk shares what it takes to keep loving even in the midst of conflicts that arise in our dealings with fellow humans. Some of my favorite things: -His focus on the incompatibility of love and control. -His emphasis on learning to communicate one's own actions rather than dictating to others what they should do. -Instruction on learning how to decide who you will say 'yes' to and who that means saying 'no' to. -I love the diagram Silk created to illustrate levels of intimacy needed to "cultivate and protect boundaries." Your Inner-most circle is for God, next for your most intimate human relationship, and from there the circles flow out farther away into the most outer circle to whom you might love with prayers or hopeful thoughts but not much else (as an example in his diagram, Silk's outer circles are populated by Charlie Sheen and Al Qaeda...I'm not sure if that's a commentary on his opinion of Charlie Sheen or not, but it made me laugh!). -In the same chapter on levels of intimacy I found the peace that I needed in reconciling my desire to love unconditionally with my need to change the dynamic of a formerly close relationship...It is stated: "Often people who once held the 'most intimate' place in our lives find themselves out in the Al Quaeda Sphere...We keep our love on toward them but it may be a very long time before we ever have them over for dinner." Thank you, Mr. Silk, for confirming that it is OK to protect myself from emotional harm. -Danny Silk is a Christian Counselor/Pastor with an unwavering Christian perspective, yet the bulk of the book does not belabor this point and there isn't constant Biblical Proof-texting or preaching. Because of this I feel very comfortable in sharing this book with my friends who might be of a different faith or who might not care to read a book heavily laden with theology just to get to the practical wisdom within. -I can't wait to practice being a Blue-Ray Player. ....And to understand that last one you will have to get this book! KYLO!!!

A practical guide to interpersonal relationships...
My wife and I picked up copies of Keep Your Love On! ("KYLO") for our 8 year anniversary. As we had followed a small group study on Mr. Silk's "Loving Your Kids on Purpose", and found his teaching to be incredibly practical in our day to day relations with our children, we were excited to see what Mr. Silk had to say about marriage. More than a book on marriage, KYLO is an overview of how to create and foster intimate interpersonal relationships by learning to make connections, communicate effectively and set appropriate boundaries. Mr. Silk uses anecdotal experiences from his personal life and ministry to set the stage for each chapter in the book. What I ended up walking away with from KYLO was the discussion on "love languages" (how people receive and give love);the seven pillars of a healthy relationship; communicating in conflict; and a breakdown on the various levels of intimacy. These concepts gave my wife and I, who on all accounts have a happy marriage, food for thought and opportunities to discuss how to make our "good thing" better. Though the book is written from an evangelical Christian perspective, I believe the book has value even for non-Christians. The analysis of interpersonal dynamics, communication styles, and behavioral cycles all have a secular academic foundation which comes to the same conclusions Mr. Silk arrives at by biblical means. Though "self help" books are not a genre I usually cozy to, I thoroughly enjoyed KYLO. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to know what a healthy relationship looks like and how to foster healthy relationships in your own life.

Really Helpful!
Format: Paperback
The concepts about communication and relationships in this book are sometimes very basic (e.g., "I statements"), yet presented very well. And some of the concepts are absolutely wonderful in the way they present ways to live well and love deeply those in one's closest circle. The book is useful for everyone, not just married couples and parents. I am a widow of many years, and found this book very valuable for my relationship with my almost 40-year old son, and with my sister and her family, and other relationships as well. I'm going to go back through the book at least once a year to keep the concepts fresh and in the forefront of my mind.

Required reading for use in everyday life!
Format: Paperback
My brother-in-law recommended I read the book and I am so grateful that he did. This book is not just for married people. It is a book about "owning" your part in interacting with people (constructively and destructively) and learning how to become powerful without destroying the ones you love. It explains SO much on how I messed up (destroyed) so many relationships in my past (familial and friends). I really have a whole new depth of reality. I will probably read my copy of the book at least 2 more times. And, I will recommend the book over and over again - to anyone struggling to love someone and feeling frustrated and powerless. Although, I will never be able to loan my copy to anyone, because I underlined, circled, and wrote so many notes, that the book is now a journal of my inner most feelings and revelations. Lastly, I am married. And, my marriage is fragile. There is a WHOLE lot of work to be done to change the tides from choppy waters to smooth sailing. The difference now is that I have hope. I no longer have fear or defeat. I will take a chance and be vulnerable and communicate what it is I want and need, without critism to my husband. I WILL listen to what it is he wants and needs, regardless of whether it is a task I am responsible for - or not. No matter what happens from this point forward, I KNOW how to love the person without demanding that they change. Ultimately, I can only control myself. It is no longer my job to change or critique others. As long as I keep God first, focus on myself second, do not allow "Consumers" to deplete my garden, express "God's love (in and out of my home), establish healthy boundaries (not selfish ones - healthy ones), and ensure that I manage relationships in a mutually respectful way, I CANNOT lose. As my brother-in-law told me, "Read this book with your heart. You will be changed. I promise." God bless you Danny Silk!
