Right ive been using standard corsa driveshafts on cav 1.6 inner cvs and i put it all together and the long drive shaft is just spinning round in the inner cv, on closer inspection the driveshaft has more than 22 splines on it, its a 1.4 sport driveshaft. Can anyone shed any light on this, do i need 1.6 driveshafts?

Cheers

Pretty sure only only the 1.6 sport shafts are 22 spline, the 1.4 sport ones are 28 spline I think.

Just got the cv off the short driveshaft and somehow ive managed to get a 28 spline shaft into a 22 spline inner cv lol so thats a cv written off :( think I'm going to just buy some big hubs for the big block shafts ive got and be done with it lol

I thought the smaller shaft was ok but after counting the splines on the o/s shaft and the inner cv i thought i best check it lol so yeh big hubs needed.
