does anybody know the difference between the cv and axle on a coil sprung diff or the leaf sprung diff
I went to replace my short axle and cv (snaped the axle the other weekend) and when i put the cv in and did the stub axle up, it put that much pressure on the cv that i was unable to turn it Brass washer is on the right way and everything else appears to be fine.
Didnt even think of coil/leaf cv differences at the time. Some one mentioned it and it seems to make sense.
Is the cv the same and the axle different, vica versa or both

Cheers

Not that sure, but I have heard that early leaf sprung GQs had MQ diffs under them which would have different CVs.

leaf n coil have same cv but different long axle lenth, leaf is about 25mm shorter then coil on long but same on short, I have a leaf long if some one wants to buy one

So the short should be the same
Im really confused now

yes both short sides are the same

all gq cv's are the same and no gq's ran an mq diff, altho the leaf sprung diffs' steering etc is the same as an mq

Yeah but what about axle lengths

I also have heard of the differences but have never found the true answer to that question and i've been doing cv's for 12 years!

Can you let me know how you get on?
