the problem is that no exist..

Driveshaft coupler/flex disc

We need a good vendor to support this and maybe help the vendor with a group buy to build confidence that the vendor’s effort will payoff.

Looking for a part out to purchase, then grab several measurements for us to use.

Keep plugging away.

Per Google Translate:
This is Korea. Just like carpooling,

I do not sell, I use a lot of production


Please use exact dimensions or drawings

Do you manufacture these?

Aluminum spacer

Could a 35mm spacer 6x114.3 be the trick?

The rubber guibo was put there to deal with driveline vibration. Whether it's actually objectionable is anyone's guess. I found the urethane trans mount disconcerting at first but don't notice it now. Didn't notice any change with the urethane diff bushing, either. You might not notice any extra vibration using a metal guibo replacement, but if you do, remove it immediately as those vibrations could eventually damage the transmission and/or diff.
