Hi guys,

Where is the best place to source good quality inner and outer CV joints for a 3B S2?

Cheers chaps

I used them for mine and the prices are ok and they are quick.
Don't Chuck your old ones. If they aren't too worn they can be cleaned, 're greased and new boots. The original ones seem to be very well made.

I've been experiencing a vibration between 30-40 mph which was doing my head in so removed a rear passenger drive shaft today. The inner CV was very notchy even although the grease was still in reasonable condition. I stripped, cleaned and regreased it but the joint is very tight now, much worse that it was before. I'll need to have another look at it tomorrow but it's doesn't feel good. Messy bloody job eh!!!

SKF only list front inner and outer for a 3B. Are the rears the same as the fronts?
