diveshaft tunnel brace. It's supposed to reinforce the floor pan. I took mine out for the same problem and have had it out for 3 years now.

It isn't built stout enough to do much. I have been running without mine for over two years

Mine is out as well. I took it off for clearence with the exhaust clamp. However, I bought a band exhaust clamp recently so I could put that back on and now I cant find the brace.

If you want something effective, there are bolt-in driveshaft safety loops that go in its place.

^ not effective on a lowered car. had one fold over to where the loop was rubbing a deep groove into the drive shaft. had no choice but drive it home that way.
