I'm in the process of giving up hope realy the driveshafts I've ordered up to now have all been wrong so I'm thinking that my only option is rebuiling the inside gaiters of mine (since that the only broken bit).

So does anyone know who can rebuild them though I remember Mark saying you could get them done for £60 but no names mentioned.

I'll drop you a PM in a second.

The fact was Halfords sold me a 1.8 shaft (I guess judging by its sized on the drivers side plus it has smaller bearng on the end).
On the passengers side the one they sold me was for the other type of connection

However wasn't to bad as when I bought then I got a 10% discount when I took them back I got a full refund so I was £20 up. They got there money back though as I went and spent £170 on tools before I left.

Getting blood out of stone is easier than to get me to part with cash.

Should have spent the £170 you spent on tools on new ones and put the extra that it will cost you to get these refurbed, towards tehm, that way it will be about even?

Most decent motor factors should be able to get driveshafts refurbed ok.
