    you should be using nova hubs, use the cav inners an the nova outers. Its because of the different gear box.

    Yep use mk 2 cav 1.6 inner joints, they need to be 22 spline where they go on the shaft and 34 spline where they go in to the gearbox. We got a pair from a motor factors for about ?40 the pair when we did my mates valver.
