Alright folks

Cv joint has been knackered for a while now. Im usually pretty useless at fixing my car and break everything i touch, but since i have 2 weeks anual leave, if something goes wrong i dont need my car so bad... so gna have a go at sorting it. Ill be ordering a new central wheel nut as well... but seen a driveshaft at j and r trading... http://www.jandrcvjoints.co.uk/citroen-saxo-mk2-1-6-vtr-vts-driveshaft-n-side-99-04/.... anyone know if these are ok? Its a lot cheaper than eurocarparts also, is this right for a 52 plate saxo vtr (no abs)

Cheers

Yes J&R driveshafts are cheap and I've never had any problems with them, they actually come with a wheel nut included.

No, it's 30mm. I bought mine in B&Q for £5.

32mm is for rear hub nuts on drums.

Also that's the correct shaft and JR do half decent shafts.

J&r are good. I've never had a problem and I've ordered a few sets for myself and friends. They claim they're shafts are solid and they use Motorsport spec cv joints.
