306 Driveshafts

[Bananalad]

Im looking for a passenger side drive shaft for my phase 1 dturbo, is there differences in the other phases/models? Thanks

[Bananalad]

I need an answer as fast as possible as i want to buy one today Sorry for the quick bump!

[samass]

should be the same as all XU engined cars. (1.8, 2.0 xsi, 2.0 gti, 1.9d, 1.9DT)

[Bananalad]

Rang a scrappy and he told me there is a different amount of splines between phase one and phase 2? Is this true?

[samass]

that, i couldn't tell you. but i didn't think there was as all the gearboxes are interchangeable, i think.

[Bananalad]

Thats a good point actually.. You dont need to change drive shafts when putting on a hdi box so they have to be the same........ Anyone confirm this

[sweeney1987]

all xu are same fitment. has your car abs though?

need one of an abs car if you do iirc

[samass]

could always get a lift to the scrappy, and take your old one with you. then just compare them

[Bananalad]

No dont think it has abs.. Ill check now Ill do that samass

[mark_airey]

Only difference I know of is the ABS sensor ring being present or not!

[sweeney1987]

short shaft youre looking for?
id say i have one off an abs xsara here if youre stuck

infact think i have a few different ones in the shed but i cant currently get in it :/

[samass]

ah yeah, good point sweeny, abs! easy to check, just look for a pumpy looking thing with lots of brake lines going into it at the front of the passenger side chassis leg in the engine bay, behind the headlight

[Bananalad]

Thanks sweeney i was only up your way yesterday too for the rally Think i have one sorted.. If i put a non abs shaft into one with abs what would happen? Just not click into place?

Nope no abs

[sweeney1987]
