How do you know if you have a matched pair of drive shafts? Are they the same length or is one longer than the other?

Hi there

Yes, one should be longer than the other

I've got XR4x4 drive shafts. If you put the shafts on a flat surface and measure between the outer face of the flanges with the faces parallel to each other and at 90 degrees to the drive shaft itself, one shaft will be about 49cm and the other about 47cm.

At least - mine are!!!

Hope that helps
