Hmmm tempting

Chris isn't far from me either so could collect aswell?

Worth double checking too whether this price is the same regardless of whether its an ABS type shaft or a non-ABS type shaft as ABS ones tend to cost a little more.

Generally prices between flat or tapered shafts doesnt vary though.

They come built in with the ABS ring, you simply knock the ring off for a non ABS car.

Saxo Daffy is after some uprated shafts for his turbo saxo. Give him a pm fella.

AlexB^p · 24th February 2011, 16:40

very good shafts i just fitted a pair of these

JoshB · 24th February 2011, 17:47

My drivers side shaft is dodgy so I was going to replace them with these. But my MOT isnt whilst August....

Shame, as well, but I cant justify saving £35 for something I dont need right now...

They do look really well built.

Is the shaft actually physically thicker than OEM?
