Fitting The Drive shafts

Once the rear wishbones where on and in place we strapped them up and began wondering how the drive shafts connected to the differential. Because the Diff sits to one side there is a long and short shaft. Its easy to figure out which goes where, if you where to look at the car from the back the short one goes on the left and the larger on the right. Im pretty sure GBS label the drive shafts so you shouldn't have a problem.


The next part is very simple, all you need to do is rub some lithium grease on the end going into the diff and slide the drive shaft through the hub carrier. Once the end is in the diff you may want to turn it and push it slightly so the teeth line up and connect. You will know when its in and properly connected because it will be harder to spin.

Rest the outer end of the drive shaft on the rim of the hub carrier until you fit your hubs. When you turn one of the drive shafts the other should turn in the opposite direction, this ensures both shafts are fixed in to the diff properly.
