Title: driveshaft question
Post by: vwwvgolf on 23 December 2013, 19:46

evening!
 ive been talking to a guy from a gearbox refurb place. i plan on getting the box out in the near future to fit the flywheel, and while its out ive decided to go for changing the final drive and get it refurbished at the same time. his asked if the driveshafts are a 'pop' joint fit or ones with a 6mm allen in the middle??

not to savvy with all this lol

I'm pretty sure they just sit slightly inside the output flange and bolt on around the periphery of the driveshaft...
