Hi
I have just fitted the Sue Miller shafts, but as yet have not had a chance to try them out as I also need to change the broken rear springs
I spoke to Tony Thompson about these shafts last week and he has scared me a bit. He says without fitting
his stronger diff and hub shafts the CV shaft will break them, his exact words were "they are a time bomb waiting to go off".
Have you guys that have fitted Sue's shafts also upgraded the diff and hub shafts???
I understand that Tony has a vested interest in selling these shafts but he did seem like a genuine guy.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that you guys have not fitted the stronger shafts and I have nothing to worry about
Oh, by the way, I consider myself a pretty competent mechanic and I had to remove the allen key bolts and split the joint at one end as there was not enough room to get the shaft in. Also the studs in the shaft are too big to fit the existing shafts so I had to open up the existing holes. In total, in the cold laying in my front garden it took about 3 hours. I have told Sue that "easy fit" is not how I would describe them.
I am looking forward to next spring for a non-rotoflex drive
