Make Drive Shaft Flex Coupling
 

Has anyone made drive shaft flex couplings? If so where did you get the material? New ones are about $21 each and up. It sure look like with a jig saw and a drill they would be easy enough to make. Thanks for any suggestions.

The flex disc joints could be made using an old tractor/big truck tire.
But why? the original ones last 30-40 years.
So if you replace them with factory new, they prolly will be good when you are gone or no longer have the tractor.
Just my thought. :bigthink:

These need to be precision cut/punched to maintain balance.

Something to keep in mind, the new ones are a different thickness so you will need to plan for that.

Depending on which model machine you have Mr. Charlie has them for $17 each.
