The “Safety Slider”

          A direct drive Greek Coupler disconnect device

 

   This package has drawings, descriptions and parts list to enable Don Ross Fabricating to custom build a Safety Slider for just about any old front engine race car using a direct drive and Greek coupler.

  The Safety Slider will enable the driver to disengage the coupler after arriving at a parking position after a push start. The Sprint car shifter used to slide the coupler locks in the engaged position to allow for powered movement of the car.
