    Mr Hankey, you have done me a solid with those photos! The cast number on the pictured tail housing matches mine.
    Interestingly , the balancer on the tranny end of the driveshaft looks different than mine (pictured above in one of my earlier posts).
    Thank you very much for taking the time and effort to get those photos.

    Mr Hankey,,
    Thanks very much for those photos. The ID stamp on your extension housing pictured above matches mine.
    Is that photo from a Marauder?
    The slip yoke in the adjacent photo above appears to be the kind without the harmonic balancer; the slip yoke on my MM and one of the above (posted by justbob) have the "disc" type balancer on the tranny end of the driveshaft.
    It looks like you have a drop protector for the drive shaft as well?
    In any case, thanks so much for the photos.

    Here is the original tailhousing from my 04 Marauder.

    You "feel" the difference because you want to "feel" the difference. Since you just spent money on the upgrade you "have" to feel the difference

    I'm looking to eliminate the double pump process I have to follow right now to get the pedal hard

    Yes the pics are from the marauder. I think metco made/makes the driveshaft loop. We have an aftermarket shaft thats why there is no dampner. The dampner is stock like Bob said.
