I would avoid at all costs....in fact ... i did!

I asked the same question recently and someone said Google them. Pages and pages of people having issues. Bad customer service after they sell bad parts. Pay more, get a good pair of shafts.

I got some JR drives shafts earlier this year. I only needed the inner spring in the end so sent one back with no trouble and kept one for spares, so service was good but I didn't like the play in the outer cv joint.

Feedback is good considering the amount they have sold

Suppose we all have different opinions

Had a shaft break from euro once for a seat Alhambra smashed a BIG hole in the auto box what a nightmare for a warranty claim insufficient and poor welding caused it never bought one from them since finally got paid out 3 months later

Always inspect them thoroughly too now before fitting them
