Is there any of the original running gear left in any of your FD's Gerard? 

You seem to be always swapping or replacing something!

How dare you. There's no incestuous cross breeding going on here

Would you like an audit trail?

[tw2005]

Right.

time to take a data dump,

i30 FD CRDi Auto RHS driveshaft

length 945mm (with inner joint compressed)

Inner Joint OEM

OEM inner kit

495352L401 ( Aus and Europe regions)

Aftermarket according to a UK site GSP 624061 Joint Kit, drive shaft - Reduced prices

GSP 624061

Data quoted:
Length [mm]: 148
Seal Diameter [mm]:  41
Int.teeth, diff.side, conn.to conn.shaft:    22
Outer teething differential side:  27

GSP Data can be found here:
http://www.gsp.cn/index.jsp?id0=z0hkxmf8dx&id1=z0hl7qpkwd

Chinese site but that joint 624061 is being referenced to the 2011 onwards Elantra and i30 with 1800 Motor, , manual, NU. Right side






From what I can deduce OEM for that is 495923X2A0


Inner joint is a tripod design



actual dimensions off the joint removed.



L= 86mm
H = 62mm
overall length 148mm
C = 41mm (seal diameter)
A = 27 teeth spline to diff
B = 22 teeth spline , shaft to tripod

width of the seal portion shoulder 18mm

still looking but appears Korean market used different joints, nothing coming up on Koraps. Still researching hoping to find a reasonable part to refurb this .

It's no skin off my... nose. 

You obviously just enjoy fixing stuff!

I'm not sure we have that much room or time, however here a quick rundown.

2008 SLX auto -hail damaged,  230000Km - not original - KYB shocks, tyres, RHS driveshaft, windscreen, new ball joints(OEM), new front arm bushes(aftermarket), 2 x internal chrome handles (OEM), front rotors(aftermarket), pads, shitty Silverline repco, rear pads, leather steering wheel 2nd hand exchanged, 2011 FD-01 stereo installed, rear deck replaced(missing), steering rack (41000k exchanged), new OEM front sway bushes.

super smooth, quiet and good economy. original drivetrain

2008 SX manual - 390000km- turbo swap, alloys fitted, leather wheel and audio controls added, new OEM front arms, complete rear subframe and arms exchanged, kyb shocks as purchased, original drivetrain, front swaybar swap out and new OEM bushes,

smooth and quiet, motor a bit rattly in the chain area, most economical in the fleet


2010 i30CW SLX auto 213000km- complete interior swapout , complete drivetrain swapout from 41000Km donor, rear shocks eventually went and new KYB

Drives like a low K car but seems to be thirsty ( +1l / 100 on the others)and a bit of diesel rattle cold, runs well though.

2012 i30CW Sx auto - TBA - work completed awaiting clearance to be re-registered. Initial impression suggests it could be in the league of my SLX hatch. Motor is very quiet on start up and cold compared to the other wagon. expecting better economy and has U2 D4FB.

Thanks for that Gerard. There is a lot of hours work there!

Assume you will eventually sell a couple or will you keep them in the family.

We are learning a lot from all your hands on work!

I need a sponsor. Maybe we could name the last one The Dazzler  
Don't think i can fund 3 vehicles, problem is once I turn a spanner onone it's like a child to me.

There more out there I need to save.

what i'd really like, a GD CRDi Auto tourer. I do like the wagon styling

Maybe you could sell two to buy one of those. I agree, Trish's little 2014 Tourer still looks sharp. If it was a CRDi I might have pinched it for our next road trip.

Likely candidate, but being FEBEST and after my ball joint experince, hard to trust this brand ever again.

I don't know. I hate quitting. really annoys me when a manufacturuer makes the part but makes it unavailable. I think I'll pull my other shafts apart for shits and giggles and see what they look like.

take that

Don't go bringing common sense into this Dazz. I like fixing things(economically). I should be able to replace the joint but the world is stopping me

Don't be nasty, just cos the rain won't let you play nice

Nice blueing effect there, been a bit hot in there.
Grease won't last forever,  is cleaning & regreasing in the  service list ?.
That nice Honda Red grease should work well ,( guess )

Can't comment on the bluing really,could be part of the heat treatment process but the wear spots are clear.

Sealed for life normally. Maybe it wore then got hot and that forced the  grease out but from what i see the boot  is not a tight fit.

As for the grease I think it comes from the bowels of the earth. Wicked stuff
