JXB Performance reinforced drive shaft bearing for Volkswagen Golf 7 Golf 8 R

Here is our reinforced transmission shaft bearing from JXB Performance for Volkswagen Golf 7 Golf 8 R

What's the problem with a worn or torn driveshaft bearing?

The stock driveshaft center support bearing is designed to reduce NVH in the vehicle by holding the center bearing loosely with rubber enclaves that are quite fragile. During starts and gear changes, the driveshaft can move out of center, decreasing throttle response and causing oscillations in the transmission.
As it ages, the rubber in the bracket sags and dry rots, ruining the alignment of the driveshaft.

What is the solution offered by JXB Performance ?

Their concept in this part is the idea of improved keeping the driveshaft firmly in place at all times, thus with its solid construction guarantees that it will never wear out.
The thick CNC aluminum half moons ensure that the driveshaft cannot move from the center, maintaining alignment of the driveshaft at all times. Insulating silent blocks separate the supporting frame from the bodywork, thus minimizing NVH noise transmission.

Our reinforcements are sold with a street road version therefore hardness of 65%, we have the possibility of providing more rigid for street driving or racing, in extreme conditions (drift type, rally, or other), contact us for this request particular.

Installation does not require removal of the driveshaft. 2-piece design secures around OEM bearing. The old media needs to be removed, so a cutting tool is required.

JXB Performance sells spare parts if necessary to rebuild this part.
