Looking in to these as i've seen them recommended by a lot of people.

However, when I search on their site - I can only see one kind of shaft listed, when in reality, we have two types ie tapered and non tapered.

So, do we know what the J&R ones are? Do they do both types? How do i differentiate on their site?

Check eBay, they sell them on there and have both types.

Think I've sussed it, they do actually list different shafts based on year.

Have dropped them a line to confirm anyway, which is probably what I should have done in the first place to be fair.

Thanks anyway

I can highly recommend them too. Bought one for the wife's 206, the long shaft with the centre bearing and it was £29.99 delivered and that comes with a warranty too. Excellent quality and fitment, still spot on 4 years down the line.

For that price I think I'd rather replace the driveshaft than bother with a boot repair!

Ordered one 2 days ago now got the one that needed to change going to order me other side after payday. Order directly from their site box that it comes in shows 3 year guarantee apposed to ebay giving 2 years. ebay think £26 ish paid £29 so £3 extra another year guarantee from their own site cant grumble at all
