Newbie trouble finding driveshaft

Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone can tell me where to get a near side sierra driveshaft that is 810mm uncompressed that has 26 splines on the wheel/hub end. Its a push in type.

I've tried everywhere and been sent 2 incorrect types.

I wish I'd never done that last donut

Thanks for any help

GavinC on here has a few but we tend to sell in pairs.
What's broke on yours, tripod uj's can be swapped from the shafts you have already bought.

Cheers for coming back so quickly.
I snapped the shaft clean in half. Tripode and cv are fine.

Probably worth considering the complete Cosworth diff shafts and disc brake set up as the shafts are thicker or look for some Sierra Desiel push fit shafts as they are also thicker.

I have a spare pair of push-in driveshafts here - and as it happens one of them is indeed 810mm uncompressed length.

Can't tell how many splines it has on the hub end of the shaft itself, as it still has the outer tripode joint and stub axle attached, unless you mean the stub axle which has 28 splines (but I think this is common across all drum brake stub axles?).

Anyway, they are both in good working condition, but one needs a new CV boot (£5 on ebay).

Let me know if you are interested.

Tom
