Your subject seems to ask a question, but you also seem to know the answer in your message body. I'm confused. :?

Yes, there's a flex disk. Your driveshaft u-joints might be worn out if you're going through them fast without excessive abuse.

Yeah, I have been thinking that it might be smart to look at making one out of delrin or something harder so it doesn't keep breaking.

And just like all the other hard bushings, increased noise.
