the g/f needs a new one but i heard the price is about 30 odd quid for a cheap(not a vaux one) and was told maybe i was better buying a new drive shaft(think thats what he said )what do you guys think? :roll:

not too sure but theres a good motor factors in Greenock not far from the Arnold Clarke vauxhall garage - try there 1st.

I recon ?30 sounds about right (if referring to the actual joint itself) - youre prob best getting a new cv boot aswell (approx ?15)

i looked into this - i wanted a GM part so i thaught if i ask halfords the vaux part will prolly be just a tad more

halfords wanted ?54 for a new one and ?34 for a refurbed one

so i decided "um, f00k that" didnt wanna pay over ?110 for 2CV's i didnt need

i'd assume from that tho that a refurb one from a motorfactors should be cheap

MY BRO is the the parts man in the valkswagon garage and he got that price from a motor factors but i was wondering if it was better to pay a little bit more and get the new shaft
