That is incorrect,the inner CV has teeth for the ABS belt,but if you have removed the ABS then the XR3i inner CV's will do.If not,only the XR3i driveshafts and outer CV joint's can be used.Regards,Micky

surely the xr3i driveshafts are a bit longer so wont be able to connect the driveshaft to the rst cv joint at the gearbox if it has abs as the cups are longer arent they,if they arent longer then i appologise as i dont want to sound like im arguing
