You can spend as little as $25 for the summit brand, as much as $100 for an SLP and every thing in between. The important thing is...PUT ON ONE. Here's what happens if you don't...

skeeters65, any universal one will fit a 69 camaro. I don't think they got year specific until the 80's. You can go to summitracing.com and search for a driveshaft loop and see if they have one for your specific year. A universal one will work fine for you. Just bolt it to your floor about six inches behing the driveshaft yoke and you'll be fine.

Not something that I bought. I (or I should say my roommate and I) made mine and integrated it with the transmission crossmember that I built for my T-56 install.

That is tight!

Check out the new PHR, Steve had a great idea with a "generic" loop on the Fairlane.
