Rear safety loop for 1 piece driveshaft?
 
I've been told that the BMR rear safety loop doesn't fit around the 4" Spydershaft. Does anyone know of a bolt on rear safety loop that fits around the spydershaft?

I think all you could possibly need is a front one. Reason being that if the driveshaft breaks from the rear, it only drags on the ground until you stop the car. But if it breaks from the front, it could go into the ground, embed itself, lift the car, flip it over, kill you, etc.

I have a Steeda 4" shaft with a Competition Engineering safety loop that BARELY clears the shaft. http://www.americanmuscle.com/compen...loop-0510.html
I think that, with all the range of motion that the rear goes through, there are no rear safety loops for a 4" shaft.

But you can never have too much safety and peace of mind. It would be nice to know if such a product exists.
