Driveshafts
« on: 23 May 2015, 14:47 »
Hi all,

Attempting to remove driveshafts from GTi hubs, got the hub nut off, got the 3 legged puller on it, it is not shifting, the puller is slipping off it is that tight in the hub...

Any tips on how to remove them!

Also I right in thinking they'll fit the Cabrio (2.0 8v) hubs??

No they won't fit matey, 4 stud and 5 shud outer CV's are different. You'd need to get greasey and strip em down.
