Default Left driveshaft broke my bearring

I have Phase 1, 1.6 8v from 99. recently my CV-Joint broke and a friend of me had a different driveshaft laying around and he said it would fit. So we installed it and also refreshed the gearbox oil and the (i think gearbox diff bearring if i am correct)

Now about 1 month later i hear a sound which goes faster if i drive faster, i am almost 100% sure it is my bearring.


So the driveshaft i have now is this one:
it was a tiny but shorter than my previos drive shaft.

I think because of the different style driveshaft my bearring didn't last much longer.

How can i make my current drive shaft fit my bearring? Which bearring do i have to look for and do these even get sold in the right shape for my car?

This is a audio recording from the noise i have. I was driving 80km/h straight.

Look at this post here:

This is the 2 types you get

The length is not important so much, but the taper is!

It could be the bearing has failed at random or the driveshaft nut was not tight enough. it should be 250Nm.

So i ordered a new new driveshaft, it is the same one as the right one on the picture u sended. My vtr 1.6 8v comes from 99 with 88hp. I also ordered a new bearring.

A friend of mine with a saxo to says i have the right parts. Due to the recent drive shaft replacement with a broken shaft my shaft did not fit properly in the shaft and that made it go broken in 1 month according to him.
