I need the carrier bearing support bracket. It seems that nobody makes this part anymore. If no one has one has anybody ever fabbed one up. (s13)

Are you talking about the two sheet metal brackets that go around the rubber bushing?

I got one if so.

Hes talking about two brackets that bolt up around the center support bushing
to keep it from bouncing but aloows the bushing to spin freely
you should go to the junkyard for one
because it would be tough to fb one
its super exact fitment

Or get a 1 piece driveshaft. Yeah I ran into the same problem. Luckily in my local area there are a few people that are dedicated to parting out 240s and its almost certain that they will have parts for them. I can talk to my guy to see if he has any.

But it seems that slowly parts are harder and harder to source. Eventually if the demand will be strong enough and people will be willing to pay the price then someone will come along and create the part. Thats the case with certain cars that develop a very strong and dedicated following, which in my opinion the 240SX has already achieved. Ill have to keep in mind, I should make a list on my 240SX guide page about parts that should be created and maybe someone will come along and take the initiative to make them.

Ha. Well said. Well yea that'd be great if your peeps could have one up for grabs.
Of course the 1 piece would be great but unfortunately my budget don't have room for that expense yet.
