Hi,
I have a 1y powered t25 with a 4speed 1.9 petrol gbox attached. The other day the driveshaft snapped not sure what caused it as I had just done all CVs last week (must have done something wrong...). Anyway, I need to buy a new one. I have found one on eBay and it has the length given as 522mm. Is this the standard size?
Cheers all
Nic

Re: Drive shaft length
522mm is for one side of an auto.You want to be looking for one that is 541mm.Both these include constant velocity joints.Not sure about a bare shaft though.(Click picture to enlarge)

Re: Drive shaft length
phew! that was close. Almost bought the wrong one. Cheers mate!
Any ideas as to why this would have happened? I cant think of what I could have done wrong when fitting the CVs they all went pretty smoothly. I was doing a hill start when is snapped, Im guessing it just happens sometimes.
