Drive shaft carrier: My newest Mini fab project

[fivestardsm]

So I am going to be hauling an AWD eclipse this weekend and I couldn't find my old strap I made to hold the drive shaft up, so I made a new one. I actually like the way this one turned out. It makes the process very easy to do, and I would say is faster than tying a few pieces of rope to hold it over.

With this set-up, I don't have to worry about the Lo-Bro joint binding up when I load/unload the car now! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

want to make one for me for the front? I end up with shells all the time to move around that are missing engine/trans/xcase but still have driveshaft and rear assembly in place. Could use one to hold up the front yoke under the steering column for getting cars on/off trailer in pushing around without digging ditches in the driveway with a swingin driveshaft.
