Hardly "uprated" though,

They are just XR4x4 shafts which are 10mm longer than the cosworth items.

IMO they are not the answer to the problem, and when i tried a set of 10mm longer shafts in my saff, i couldnt go around corners

Standard shafts, with uprated engine mounts works much better.

GGR want £260.00 each. I've bought a set from Duncan just need to get round to fitting them.

The longer shafts are 4x4 ones and are better if you are running adjustable TCAs to get neg camber. To get it to turn in you need compression struts and put loads of castor on
