Pedro,

The way I read that JMK had front AND back shafts done.

:bangin::whistling::lol2:

Mark/Pedro, yep - both shafts and the other bits I mentioned. I was lazy, so it was drive in and drive out of the tailshaft shop. Magic happened - it was all fixed....

It all started with the front Cardon-joint UJ playing up after much caravan towing.

Cheers

Hi Ricey,

Did they replace the bearing as well?
How much did they charge?

As I need mine done, and am looking for somebody in Sydney/wollongong area.

but you have to give them the shaft out of the car.

Whoever you get to do it, get the Hardy Spicer 1310 greasable unis, had mine in for 3 years, previous to this was replacing them ever 6mths (I have a 4" lift, makes it more prone to failure)

Baz.

Am taking it over to Hardi Splicer at Liverpool.

They seemed helpfull on the phone.
Will let u know how i go, and what damage it costs

I had a similar thing happen to me a while back. Had a faint vibration for a week or so. Took it to Davis Performance @ Annangrove. Actually had cracks in the uni's at the front. Had a look at it after they took it out for a new one. $750 later and I was back on the road.
