Thanks for that. Do you know if a GU axle and CV will fit in a GQ?

The axles are different between leaf spring & coil spring front!
Cv joints are the same.

I got hold of an axle and CV and heading out to Levuka on saturday to put it in the car. Had to leave it there on the weekend. Tried taking the axle out and driving it home but as soon as I got around 30km the steering wheel shook like mad.

GU Axles are longer. The CV bell is larger. They will not fit.
