Default what are these things called

Hi guys,

I was under my SC today and saw a couple of things missing. I was wondering if you can help me to find out what they are called.

First is a cross member support ? it is (should have been) mounted sideways between the chassis on top of the drive shaft before the differential.

second are some sort of plug (drain plug?) under the chassis (body) I believe there are four of them and I'm missing one. I can reach in and touch the carpet.

Thanks - Adil

First would be the center support bearing for the driveshaft / propshaft

Second - they are just grommets in the floor - i assume you mean the rubber blank for the circular holes in the floor pan

dohickies....


cause threads like this (especially when you answer one of your own questions in your question post) are truly useless without pictures.

First could be mount for the bearing for the driveshaft, but hope your not driving it without it. But your description (crossmember somewhere before the differential) could be the mounting holes for the exhaust hangars that happen to be across from eachother...?

So until pictures, they are considered one of the above..sorry
