Can one of you guys give me a pic of your drive shaft loops so i can have and idea for building mine?

What class are you running...How many loops are you required to have per drive shaft. I have two differant set-ups ...

it will be a street mod this summer and me ready for pro stock next year

I know if you look through some of the past posts, maybe back a couple of pages you can find some pics of shazam's drive shaft loops. Or else he will post some more mabe later.

Vehicle must have 360-degree metal shield around the universal joints, 3/8" aluminum or 5/16" steel, minimum width 6". Driveline shielding without planetary rear-end must have (3) round metal loops shielding on each drive shaft (two-piece drive shafts must have six metal loops). 360-degree loop must be a minimum of 3/8" aluminum or 5/16" steel, 3/4" wide (or wider) and not more than 2" from the shaft in any direction. End loops to be placed no farther than 6" from universal joints, with third loop in center of shaft. May be solid tube (3/8" aluminum or 5/16" steel) to meet the above requirements.

Pictures Pictures lets see if I have pictures..

Here's a deal that we used on my dad's truck, it's a bracket bolted to the rear end and it has a 3/4" pipe or like this one is a 3/4" piece of Hex rod, that runs from the transfer case to the pinion housing. Bolt as many loops as you want just drill a hole thru the piece of 1" pipe that you use as a slider. And put in a bolt to hold it there .


Then you have this type if your rear end is mounted solid, This type of shielding uses 1" Sq, tubing welded to the bracing, and a loop is bolted to each cross piece with a 3/8" bolt.
