108 - 100 Drive Shafts

[Guest wargob]

hi guys i have a 7.5" lsd 4.27 diff and cant find 108mm full drive shafts with stub axles on, but i have 2 sets of 100mm shafts, will the 108 cv joint fit on the 100 drive shafts as i can find lots of 108 cv joints.

The 100 measurment and 108 refer to the bolt pattern PCD so I'm afraid not

dam was worth a try do you know where i can get some 108's then ?

Don't give up so easily. Take the shafts to your local Partco and see if they will let you try the 108's on the end. They may well not fit but there's nothing to loose.

When I researched changing from 'push in/lobro/open diff' to ' fixed/CVJ/LSD' I couldn't find any info apart from change the whole rear subframe and assembly. Just in case I bought two new CVJ's (100mm type) and found they were a straight swap for the lobros on my drum braked shafts. (CVJs inboard, Lobros outboard on the halfshafts!) Been on 3 years now.
