    are both shafts the same? i know the drivers side has the extra mount on the back of the engine plus the half shaft to it coming from the diff.

    anyway, ive got a drivers side complete but its not cheap to post. the CV boot is in good condition too and this never clicked on full lock. weighs 8.5kg.

    i can have it delivered for around £45. add another fiver if youd like me to include a spare brand new CV boot.

    wonder then if this is why a few guys keep have driveshafts pop out?
    even a small difference in length could lead to them popping out but maybe they fitted a shorter one unwittingly after being under the impression they were the same length for both sides?
