Haultech CVs for MQ/MK Patrol

OK,

ive finally had abit more time to give these some thought....

They are definatly a stronger CV and provide large improvement over standard MQ CVs.

For further note also, GQ CVs are nearly identical in strength to an MQ CV so a haultech treated MQ CV will be vastly superior to a GQ CV if you manage to get one to fit....

One thing, is that you will break the next weakest link. more than likely it will be the inner axle, if not that then possibly a stub axle or the inner cage. The bell of the cv will no longer be the weakest link.

These are worth a go if you break CVs in an MQ, as they do provide large improvement.

The way Haultech works with these is that you must get a pair of NTN cvs, remove them off the axle, disassemble them and fully clean them of all the grease etc and put them in a box and send them up to haultech.

they will treat them and re assemble them ready to go back on your axle, so all you have to do is put them on the axle and a coupla mar tacs later and your ready to rock and roll.

Haultech charges $300 per PAIR to treat these. They have to be NTN and have to be clean and disassembled off the axles. you send them up in the post and you will get them back done.

PM Tony ( Ruff ) if you wish to get a set made ( again you need to send your ntn ones up ).

if you want anymore feedback or questions on how they run in the patrol drop me a PM and im happy to have a chat about them.

cheers guys

if the NTN second hand ones are in good nick it wont be much of an improvement to use new ones.

but if ya want to spend many hundreds on a new pair of NTN nissan cvs thats up to you. they will break just as easy ;)

Are you saying its still worthwhile as you are just going to move the breakage along the drivetrain to the next weakest link. But I spose its taking more of a beating before you break the inner or the stub axle than it would to just blow the outer??
I Broke a couple of outers, so put Birfields in the zook, next trip out just blew the inner instead... :roll:

Ive got em in my GQ Shorty, TD42T 10psi boost, twin locked, 36" iroks. They've been there so far for 1 comp, plus maybe 6 or so medium to hard trips, cant complain yet, no clicking or anything coming from the front end.

I had also previously broken 2 or 3 std's, but the haultechs seem to be holding up well. :armsup:

it takes alot more to break an inner axle, but its probably the next weakest link.....

The CVs will now be stronger than an inner axle so it will be what you break, but yeh it will take alot more to break as the inner axle is alot stronger than a stock CV.
