Hi there. New to the forum and to Jimnys. I'm hoping someone can help identify my CV - it doesn't appear to be a type 1 or 2 as defined by the wiki.
It's from an '03 soft-top. It has 6 balls, an inner case diameter of 72.6 and 26 splines on the outer shaft, but 20 splines on the inner race and a shaft diameter is 24.5mm.
The inner case has "AYD 143 Y3 164" stamped on it.
Any idea if this is a type 3, and what my replacement options are? Thanks
Welcome to the forum. I would suggest that you send all your vehicle details to Martin via the shop at the top of the page and he should be able to get a suitable replacement.

My recommendation is to buy a complete scrap type 1 or type 2 driveshaft and convert away from type 3

A practical idea Martin, but might that also require the change of a differential because of different number of splines on the halfshafts (if that happens to be the case)?
Do all Jimnys 3 have the same number of splines on the differential output sides towards the halfshafts?
Thanks Bosanek & Martin. I did indeed end up buying scrap replacements. Unfortunately they were bought unseen and I now have a type 1 on the offside and a type 2 on the nearside.
This does however mean I can confirm that the number of splines on the diff side is the same for all types!
