Hey chaps, new t the forum, I don't actually have a Williams, I have a 1986 ph1 Renault 5 GTTurbo fitted with a home built F7R lump with a sizeable GT3071r turbo nailed on the back, I'm running a slightly wider than normal track using clio valver driveshafts, wishbones, etc.

However my driverside shaft has taken to shredding itself (350ft lb ftw :winkey:) and I'm having trouble sourcing a replacement, Id rather buy brand new than risk a second hand item.

but trying to nail down exactly the one I'm after is proving difficult as all the suppliers I've talked to keep telling that RSI/Valver/Williams shafts are all the same and with the valver forum currently down I cant ask the chaps I'd normally ask.

Has anyone got any specs on RSi/Valver/Williams driveshafts, IE lengths, compressed and fully extended, with or without abs?

Can anyone help?

I think Williams are slightly longer as people with valver setups have spacers put on the spline of the shaft before the hubs to add the width.. no details on length from me tho....
