RACK 0 Posted November 10, 2004 To cut a long story short, the thread on the end of the driveshaft has sheered off and taken the nut with it. Just wondered where the best place to get a new driveshaft would be? Also I'm getting due to put a new engine in and is it worth sticking to the G60 shafts or uprating them due to me hoping for around 260bhp, and if which ones should I go for? Thanks loads RACK Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theRuler 0 Posted November 10, 2004 its an outer cv joint you need. if you are going for some big power, then replacing the inners and outers would be a good thing. if anything, for peace of mind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RACK 0 Posted November 10, 2004 Cheers for that mate. I'll look into it. I'm quite pleased now, I've just looked on GSF, it's only £50 :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RACK 0 Posted November 11, 2004 I'll keep that it mind. The car is back up and running now thanks to my mate (head mechanic at a stealers :D ). Just need to get a new set of centre caps for the wheels, due the the nut popping off and taking that with it :cry: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
