Drum Braked Outer Hub CV's
Minicooper - 27/2/07 at 04:14 PM

Hello all,
I'm after a pair of Sierra Drum Braked rear outer tripod CV's with part of the driveshaft or complete driveshafts.

I have been told these Outer tripod CV's will fit a disk braked Lobro hub, I made an arse of measuring things and now I can't get the original lobro joint in. I can redo the de dion to allow fitment but if the tripod style CV fits then that will cure my problem and be more than strong enough and a bit lighter always good, apparently there are some early thin driveshaft types that don't fit


Cheers
David

Is it the ABS teeth that are binding on the inside of the upright. This is a pretty standard problem. take them to a local machine shop and have them turned off, mate of mine did mine for free.

Thanks Chris,
There is no problem with the ABS bits, it's the bottom link on each side also the 4 link axle housing I have put some arrows on the affected areas

Cheers

Right think i get you now, think the likes of GTS and jroberts use a slightly different design.
Have a look

I'll see if i can find a pic of the joints too.

Anyone?
I'm stuck without knowing for sure the Tripod CV's drum braked CV's will fit, has anyone in Hampshire got one even just to try so I know, I've tried all over to try and get a pair but no luck yet

Cheers
