Tool confirmation please

Yo...

Will be changing my drive shaft hopefully next week 

I require the tool that attaches the DS to the box...Now I am under the impression that it is one of these, I think it is an M10 multi spline (other wise known as a triple square, correct?).

If someone could please confirm the exact size then it will save me buying all of them 

Cheers

M10 Spline on our cars, non gti's have M8 splines.

Might be better with a 1/2 drive though as some may be a little tight and a long reach too.

Thought you've already changed both yours

Ahh brill, thanks for that. I'll order and let you know how I get on. M10 is the size of the bolt right, and the spline bit...that is just a generic term for something with how many 'teeth'? What I'm after is the correct amount of teeth, I heard it was 12 (triple square  ).

When I say mine, I mean my brothers.

 Another J&R special coming our way, £32 delivered 2year warranted...Winner winner chicken dinner!

I thought I'd buy one as I'm sure it will come in handy in the future 

Couldn't see any when I had a look earlier  ...I'll look harder

Different names same tool, 12 point spline. M10 is the size of the spline bit. Good old J&R

You can get an extra long version from Sealey or use some long extensions instead, the set I use are 3/8ths drive and I've not had any problems with them
