Hey,

The below link states the FTO uses the same outer CV as certain Magnas??

Don't want to use the Ebay version, as its def made in China and I wanted to pick up a Protex one tomorrow hopefully.

Anyone confirm the list??

I thought it was a HJ Galant??

Search that and u may find.. Think it has been mentioned here a few times..

The boot is the same as a galant but nothing said about the joint being the same. According to that list it's different.

Am prettysute when we have done CV's at DIY Days that HJ Galant boots were used.. Maybe PM Bennoz.. Je will know..

Im talking abut the outer cv joint. I counted 25 spines on the outer say it may be the hj glaant one.

the outer should be same as galant and many magna variants the inner however are specific to your gearbox

How do you get the outer joint off? Tried bashing the outer housing off for a while and nothing happened!

Guess you need to bash it harder?

This^

I know the inner seal is 50mm outer splines is 25 what is the inner spline count??

Seems different everywhere! Some say 24 others 23. 23 is what the HJ Galants use.

I measure 50mm for the inner seal? Why 54? Isn't the bearing seal the diameter of circle part near the outer spines?

What are you trying to achieve??? Just trying to find a replacement??? What's wrong with the Ebay unit? 40 bucks too expensive for ya?

* External Spline(Connect Hub): 25 Spline

* Internal Spline(Connect Middle Axle): 23 Spline

* Oil Seal(Connect Wheel Bearing Inner Seal): OD 54 mm

Everything is made in China.

The rear wheel bearings / hubs I just ordered were made in China, but guess where Mitsubishi get them? Even had the MDxxxxxx part number stamped on them direct from the manufacturer. It aint all bad!

Bonnoz bashed the sh*t out of the cv and it would not come off!! Am missing something? How big of a hammer did you use? What technique you employ???

power tools

One method is correct spelling.

The other is being a man.

I hammer fails, 2 smokes, a beer and an axe normally fixes most things

Ended up cutting through to the spindle haha
