the CV's and halfshafts would be fine for 33's but individual CV's and Halfshafts would be available if anything ever did happen

i didnt go down the route of standard uprated halfshafts eg 22 spline both ends as the orignal CV's dont last, even if you put a ring around the outside the cage inside breaks anyway

but i can go down the route of 22 spline diff end, to 26 spine and uprated CV's, so this would allow the ARB to be used plus the shafts would be 300M which is not the cheapest steel

Ive got these 4340 shafts on modded sj axles for my Jimny. is that the same as 300m does anyone know? Also got front and rear arbs in there for a Jimny with the side gears changed to fit both the arb and the 4340 sj shaft. Does this make sense to anyone. Gonna pickup the axles from Gazwell in next couple of days so will get some pics. Sorry for slightly hijacking the thread.

yes the first set is currently being made, just a 4 week wait, and i can do both 22 and 26 spline versions, thats the plan anyway

yes modded SJ axles are another way to go, as you can fab some brackets up, to make a conversion then import some 4340 parts from the states

my only thinking that way, SJ axles arnt going to be around for ever

Any progress? I might be interested in a set with 22 splines (ARB in front) too.
Thanks,

i went down to confirm some details last week so all being well ill have them within the next week, but i still think it would be at least another month before ive got a working prototype,

then they need testing

it does seem more people are interested in the 22 spline versions compared to 26 spline
