Beck/Arnley Drive Shaft Center Support P/N:101-7910
Support your Volvo's two-piece driveshaft and isolate driveline vibration with the Beck/Arnley Drive Shaft Center Bearing Rubber Cushion (101-1725). This is the rubber cushion (the "support donut") that cradles the center support bearing, absorbing vibration and locating the driveshaft between its sections. It's a direct-fit replacement for many rear-wheel-drive Volvos, including the 1970-1974 142, 144 and 145, the 1969-1975 164, the 1975-1984 242, the 1975-1989 244 and 245, the 1976-1982 264, and more — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Worn or cracked center-support rubber can allow driveshaft vibration, a rumble that changes with speed, or excess movement at the bearing — if a deteriorated cushion is the cause, this replaces it. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct procedure.
