I'm looking for CV joints (or complete driveshafts) as used on the 340 series. (1.4, 1.7, manual or vario are all the same). Not 360.

Thanks!

If you get offered 360 ones, I may be up for a straight swap.
Theres a niggling feeling in the back of my mind that says 360 ones are stronger so would be a good upgrade for me.

Re: 340 Driveshafts
Only GLT ones I think... for some reason I seem to think 360 GLE/GLS ones are the same as 340's? Hmm...Chris_C wrote:Theres a niggling feeling in the back of my mind that says 360 ones are stronger so would be a good upgrade for me.

Re: 340 Driveshafts
Yes, rotoflexes are evil and must be banished
I think that the difference between 360 and 340 CVs is just the spline size (360 are bigger). This means that you can fit 360 shafts to a 340 if you want to but they are no good for my purposes as they don't fit on the end of a Rover driveshaft like the 340 ones do. I only have the evidence of one driveshaft parts book and local Volvo breaker for this so use this information at your own risk. I thought the 360 and 360 GLT ones were all the same but could be wrong about that
Any one got some? Don't mind removing them
Cheers
