JXB Performance Driveshaft Center Support Bearing Carrier Upgrade – Audi B8/8.5 Q5/SQ5 & Porsche 95B Macan (1st Gen)

The JXB Performance Driveshaft Center Support Bearing Carrier Upgrade is the premier solution for Audi B8/8.5 Q5/SQ5 and Porsche 95B Macan (1st Gen) owners seeking to eliminate common driveline vibration and shudder issues. The factory rubber bushing sags, cracks, and fails over time, leading to costly transmission and differential damage. This upgrade replaces it with a robust polyurethane carrier that keeps the driveshaft perfectly aligned, virtually eliminating movement from center.

Choose from Street (soft) bushings for quiet daily driving, Track (hard) bushings for maximum precision, or Both for versatility. Custom isolator bushings and mounting hardware minimize NVH, while the innovative 2-part clamp design allows installation without driveshaft removal. Engineered for superior performance, durability, and longevity, this carrier is the ultimate upgrade for refined drivetrain stability.

Key Features

  • Polyurethane Construction – Virtually indestructible and outlasts stock rubber by decades
  • Precision Alignment – Thick bushings hold driveshaft firmly in place with zero movement
  • Customizable NVH Control – Street (Soft/Quieter) or Track (Hard/Louder) bushing options
  • Seamless Installation – 2-part clamp design; no driveshaft removal required
  • Superior NVH Reduction – Custom isolator bushings outperform competitors
