I know the MSM have a bigger shaft and bigger internal spline. Do they have beefier inner CV joints as well, I swear I heard something about that maybe a different type of CV or something.

Reviving an old thread:

Leafy, did you ever figure out whether the CV internals on the MSM axles were different than standard axles?

Or, if anyone wants to chime in.

I am thinking of just going to a driveline shop and see if they can source CV bearings to match the MSM, maybe with better strength.

Apologies for the thread revival and lack of an introduction post. I'm trying like mad to get my recently acquired '94 NA Eunos turbo ready for its first trackday in 2 weeks time. I'll get an introduction and build thread started once I'm not spending all my spare time on the car.

Since I decided I needed to replace all hubs and bearings, I thought I may as well replace all the uprights with NA ABS ones. As part of this swap, I bought some ABS halfshafts for my non ABS NA from a breakers and the 2 driveshafts that arrived are different lengths! I searched for this but couldn't find any results. I've attached a picture. Could someone please shed some light on this?

Is it because one of them is compressed slightly and the other is stretched out? There's 1-2in of travel in CVs.

Doh! Yes it was that! And the award to the most noobish first post ever goes to....! I thought the travel was taken up in the spline for some reason. Thank you!
