Driveshaft safety loop?
Driveshaft safety loop? I will be installing my H/C/I soon and will have much more power over stock obviously. I've been considering getting a driveshaft safety loop.
I already have the UMI tranny mounted torque arm as well as the relocation cross member that removes the mounting point from the transmission.
Is this something I should seriously consider or is it not needed? The car is mainly a weekend cruiser but it will be going on the dyno and limited track time after everything is installed.

i would say yes, just because the loops are fairly cheap. it sounds like your going to be puttin some nice power down and i dont think you would want to risk blowing a u-joint and having to buy a new driveshaft and anything else it hits. my friends just blew out and he had to buy a new driveshaft, torque arm, e-brake brackets, lines, and pieces of exhaust pipe as well as new u-joints haha.
from your sig it looks like you have a nice car, i wouldnt want to risk messing it up over a fifty dollar part, just my .02

I don't know what I will have to do considering I already have a aftermarket torque arm with no safety loop and the crossmember that relocates the torque arm.
Will the mounting points be in the way of a safety loop or will it just bolt right up to my existing parts?
