I need a pair of driveshafts made for my middy fairly soon. They will be Mondeo / Sierra hybrids.
Any contacts guys?

Blimey, that was a warp speed reply Ned !!

Is that price from GB Eng?

Sounds like a good price to me. His "std" price for the grasser shafts is now £80, rang him the other day, but they are sierra spline both ends.

The non-gundrilled ones will be MORE than strong enough, they are exceptionally well made, properly heat treated etc. To give you an idea, a lot of the grasstrackers are putting 450+hp through the gundrilled shafts (same OD as the solid ones), and one new car out this year is sticking 604hp through them

You won't break em!! (the lobros will shatter first!!!)

PS the gundrilled shafts are circa £160 each, quite a bit more, but as I said, unless you are making over a copnservative 300hp in a car over 750kg you won't need the drilled ones.

Can you drop me a U2U when you ring him up to order yours, and I'll order mine at the same time, the more he gets in one go the quicker we get them, as he has to make up a batch for the heat treatment company.

Dunno how far off you are Wadders?

I'm going to need some made up soon too, so let me know when you order too and I'll try to add a couple more to the batch

I will gladly take your details and pass them on. I will need the length required and the spline count.

I'll measure up tonight, count me in for the batch. Cheers fellas.

Faxed my dimensions today, not heard back as yet, anyone else ordered theirs?

Faxed mine yesterday afternon, not heard anything... Might give them a ring in a bit to make sure they got it

Anyone heard anything yet?
