front driveshaft solutions
im just trying to guage interest and IF there would be a potential for a long term solution to the breakage of the front driveshafts/joints on the 4wd versions.
we have been speaking to a well known drive train manufacturer about the posibility of making a front pair of shafts and a new crosshaft to eliminate the inner tripoid joints as the group a/wrc cars had but to fit std front suspension and front diff.
i dont want a list of people who want this as i havent commited to any manufacturing yet, but, how much would you pay to have the front driveshaft problems cured once and for all ??
i dont want anyone who thinks this is going to happen for £50 because it isnt.
i would be talking new cross shaft, new shafts, new inner lobro joints, and new (if possible bigger) outer cv joints/boots where applicable to std front hub spline.
would you pay... up to £500, up to £750 ???? etc etc
or am i just dreaming on here ?
