Hi mate, just catching up on this. Regarding mount placement, from what I;ve seen over the years they all seem to sit different, although from memory I think I ended up moving mine on that white one for more clearance, was so long ago tho.

[Benn]

Sup dude, and yeah i know. They are all different, it was just for a bit more placing ref.

Ive never had one cv joint go in 3 years at just over 300bhp

Understand that placing a 5mm spacer between the cv joint and the wheel bearing / hub actually worsens the drive shaft angle because you're bringing the CV's closer together along an axis. It's not the right way to do it when what causes them to blow is the shaft angle not just plunge.

I've only really seen outer go...

Will re cutting the grove in the shaft not do the same?
