Need a bb4 driveshaft and half shaft asap.

Need it tomorrow if possible as cars already up on ramps so will make my life a lot easier!
Hopefully someone locally around Dundee can have one to pick up? thanks in advance :)

Any 4th gen drive shaft will do. It can be a UK BB1.

I think you can - sure only difference is in the intermediate shaft ;) atr driver side looks same and atr pass side looks to be same or approx 5mm shorter - i couldnt tell for sure on pass side as id knocked hell out the prelude one trying to get the outer cv off and this may have made the prelude one longer by 5mm :lol:
lewie your welcome to try them and return them if theyre no good but im confident they will work. its just the outer cv on the pass side is a bit stiff - might just be from sitting around so long...
ive got a prelude intermediate shaft and atr driver and pass side - so a full set.

The auto is slightly different as it does not use a half shaft but it has one long shaft instead. I am not sure how this bolts up.
