MDL2005 - Metco Front and Rear Driveshaft Safety Loops for 2005+ Mustang and GT500 Shelby
2005 & Newer Mustang, Shelby GT500 (2 Driveshaft Loops)

This complete kit contains two separate loops, one for each section of the two-piece driveshaft found on the 2005 and newer Ford Mustang.  For NHRA compliance, two loops are necessary in applications with two-piece driveshafts.  These loops are custom-designed to take advantage of existing mounting points and no drilling is required for installation.  The loops are made from heavy-duty steel that is laser-cut and CNC-bent for precision fit.  All welds are performed using a fixture to ensure user-friendly installation.  The finished loops are powdercoated black, and the kit is packaged with installation instructions and Grade 8 hardware.

Note 1:  As of March 1, 2009, the front driveshaft loop in this kit has been revised to fit the Shelby GT500 with no modifications necessary.

Note 2:  The front and rear loops included in this kit are available separately under Metco Motorsports PN MDL2005F and MDL2005R, respectively.  These parts are listed elsewhere in this section.

MDL2005F - Metco Front Driveshaft Safety Loops for 2005+ Mustang and GT500 Shelby
2005 & Newer Mustang, Shelby GT500 (Front Loop Only)

This kit is based on the Metco MDL2005 driveshaft loop assembly, but contains only the front loop from that kit.  This kit is designed for the user who has replaced the factory two-piece driveshaft with a one-piece aftermarket driveshaft.  As described in the MDL2005 product description, this loop is custom-designed to take advantage of existing mounting points and requires no drilling for installation.  The loop is made from heavy-duty steel that is laser-cut and CNC-bent for precision fit.  All welds are performed using a fixture for consistency and ease of installation, and the finished loop is powdercoated black.  The kit is packaged with installation instructions and Grade 8 hardware.

Note 1:  Compatibility with the popular 4" OD Spydershaft aftermarket driveshaft has been confirmed.

Note 2:  As of March 1, 2009, the front driveshaft loop kit has been revised to fit the Shelby GT500 with no modifications necessary.

MDL2005R - Metco Rear Driveshaft Safety Loops for 2005+ Mustang and GT500 Shelby
Driveshaft Safety Loop - Rear Only

2005 and Newer Ford Mustang, Shelby GT500

This kit is based on the Metco Motorsports MDL2005 front and rear driveshaft loop kit for the Mustang (also listed in this section), but only includes the rear loop from that kit.

Like our front loop for this application, this loop is made from heavy-duty laser cut steel that is precision-bent on a CNC press, and then powdercoated for long lasting surface protection.  This loop installs easily using existing attachment points and no drilling is required.

A rear loop is required for NHRA compliance in applications using a two-piece driveshaft like the Mustang, although some owners using aftermarket one-piece driveshafts choose to add this loop to their vehicles to take advantage of the floor pan stiffening effect realized when this loop is bolted to the floor of the car.  

Note:  This rear loop is not compatible with the 4" Spydershaft driveshaft.
