driveshaft loop is for power uprater, suppose to be 50 % but at certifiers idea if power is lower , but seems any engine change they like loops fitted
a TD 4.2 drive shaft is the same as a TD4.2 T driveshaft go figure

OK I may come across this as also have after market Turbo.
Would a chain hanging down from chassis rails suffice as would hold drive shaft up if breaks? Is just the rear or does front drive shaft need one also?

He never asked about drop box manufacture, mine were fabed up and tacked, got a certed welder to weld them together, nor did he ask about chrome moly rear lower arms either, but again I fabed them up certed rig guy welded them
