HD Halfshafts and CV's

well the shafts are back, and all being well this week ill have the kit fitted, so pics later and then "touch wood" get an MOT and get it back on the road!!

any news on when there going to be available for purchase and any idea of cost yet?

time, looking like the end of the year but price should be better than originally thought, but no firm pricing yet but lease i should be able to try them the end of this month

well started the build up, but at the same time swapping the ring & pinion for better ratios, but i had an 8 bolt diff DOH

so just waiting for a 10 bolt diff to arrive and will continue from there!

Keep up the good work Russ, keen to see the outcome.

well basically there done now, just got to do a few odd bits now to tidy up and make the proper bits, but by the end of the week they should be done and ready for testing, hopefully silverdale next month

a few pics



The original TG cv is too long so the end is machined down so any hub can fit





So any hub will fit, but the SJ hubs would still need the adapter ring

So how we getting on??

I'm running standard shafts on the 33's and done half a dozen pay 'n play's with no breakages. Sounds like you need to give them a thrashing so you can report back.

Are you running a front locker??

Cheers

I defo will get lockers when the pockets allow. But not without some uprated shafts!
