Guys, I need a new O/S driveshaft for my 98 1.8T.
I've noticed that there are loads for sale for them on ebay, but some have the thick flange on the inner CV, and some have a thin flange.
So long as I buy a complete shaft with both CV's, does it matter if it's thick or thin flanged? I think the bolt circle is the same on thick and thin.
The output shafts on the gearbox look the same, so I'd imagine the total length to the mounting face would be the same, just using different length bolts?
Any help would be great, as I need a driveshaft ASAP as mine's died, again.
the box I'm about to fit is an 02J from an ibiza. i imagine the output flange will be the same as my 02J box from the AGU engine'd A3 won't it?
Cheers folks!
