splined driveshafts
BenB - 28/8/15 at 07:25 PM

Is there a reference (similar to the Stan Weiss one on injectors) for driveshafts? Alternatively does anyone know the ID of a freeranger 21 spline front hub? Trying to find a 30mm splined hub to make a 3 part pulley / supercharger adaptor and think the freelander one might be perfect but struggling to get anyone on Ebay to measure one for me. ....

Some propshafts have both male and female spline. That could pussibly be used to your advantage?

Order one from your local motor factors, take it away and measure it, return it afterwards?

One way of pissing of your local motor factors! they are well within their rights to say specially ordered parts cannot be returned and if they do accept returns to charge a 10% handling fee If you want any information from them try asking.

Not front and dont remember the specs' but... I know the Freelander rear CV/shaft is the same as Sierra push-in ones.

If your friendly with your local factor (and don't wee them off) they might be able to look it up. I spent (wasted) much of yesterday trying to trace a Partner van CV that wasn't what it should have been, by comparing spline counts and dia'.

Sorry for being slow replying- on holiday with cafe dependent net access. ..Got there in the end! Someone confirmed the bolts are 10mm and the splined hole is about 3* that in the photos. Close enough for me
