Off Side Drive Shaft Grinding

[brogon]

Hi all i have just taken off the Drive shaft from the Drivers side and found that the spline on the end of the stub shaft that fits in to the Gearbox is worn away and it needs a new one fitted, the problem i have found is the gear box end is worn out to how do i get the end off the gear box with out full removel of the gearbox.

undo the allen bolt in the centre of the stub shaft that is still attached to the gearbox.

 

I ordered a stub shaft and the intermediate shaft from j& r driveshafts in Birmingham----includes all new bolts and the tapered brass bush & spring that's needed to re-assemble it all.

 

you will need help as the new stub needs to have its spring compressed so you can get the allen key back into the centre of the stub shaft.

Hi  Daddyfixit the info you gave me was spot on it was very tight but come out with no problem. Do you know if the drive shaft should have a rubber boot on it at the stub shat end as it had no gerase in the spline, It has a groove around the end of the stub shaft  as if will take a boot. thanks :D

get a shaft off j & R,   all parts needed are supplied by them. I packed the splines with grease before assembly.

 

I think it had a rubber seal that covers the join up when its assembled ??

 

they have a website but I rang them , gave my reg number and it was delivered the next day to my home.
