Might seem like a strange question , are ek9 driveshafts the same length?
I had my shafts completely stripped and rebuilt, I've now done about 50mile , the gearbox was rebuilt also, earlier my driverside shaft popped out of gearbox, new top and bottom ball joints so hub is in place, I took the shaft out the snap ring seems perfect gearbox side, the shaft itself is OK apart from where the snap ring is to end of shaft the teeth are worn away rest of teeth other side of snap ring back are OK,all the teeth in gearbox look perfect all I can see wrong is some filings in the gearbox which are obviously from shaft,
Only thing I can think of is one shaft is longer than other and that why it has popped out,
Anyone any ideas?
