Sorry, anyone know a good place in western sydney for shafts?

Thanks Scott what unis should I be looking out for and any places you know of for part/work in SA would be nice to know as it is an easy place to get parts from to here.

Some uni joints are pressed and crimped into the housings, so can not be easily replaced when worn.
Replacable unis have a retaining clip or cer-clip fitted to the uni, so when to clips are removed they can be carfully knocked apart.

Some Nissan/Datsuns have replacible unis, and some have press/crimp unis.

Scott what replacable unis are you talking about, as much help as you can give would be most appreciated.
Thanks

yeh im eventuly going to be kicking out some serious power so what should i look at useing scotty as i have never had a tailshaft done b4 i got the r30 box with commdore vs diff housing

Pigdog, the r31 unis are small, and the shaft size is only about 2 1/4 from memory, but the tube is a bit thicker than some others around. I used it on my old ca18det with out a problem. But saying that, it only put out 140rwkw's so now I'm now in the process of getting all brand new shafts made, using 3 inch tube with large replacable unis. You can never be to carefull.

Thanks bundy,
I will see how I go.
Any other info others have will be appreciated too.
Thanks Again,
Philip

I got a quote through Hardi Spicer for a brand new custome shaft with heavy duty uni's for $450. This was to suit a SR20DE in a 1200 ute fitted with a R31 diff.

Its worth it if you ask me. You can call the nearest Hardi Spice with what you want and get them to ship to you. Dont go cheap cause bad vibrations get annoying and a broken uni can be very embarrising and DANGEROUS

Thanks guys.
Now anyone in Adelaide that can help with parts or good workshop. Well any state will be good.
Thanks Again,
Philip
