Front Drive Shaft Update

[globalgregors]

I have 60,000kms also with some serious off road klms. But what is interesting is that the company who distributes the Eibach spring kits is also an Ineos agent and has not seen this shaft issue, yet.

Oh, that’s interesting. I received mine direct from Eibach Australia. Did the install with the assistance of my local workshop, a bunch of fix-anything Russian lads. Coincidentally used spring compressors for the install so maybe that’s a factor…

I know of a shop working on using a larger CV right now but it isn’t my party and I promised not to say anything until it is field tested and ready for sale. Fingers crossed it works. They have machined an adapter to allow the larger CV to attach to the factory TC flange.

It would be ironic if an aftermarket stronger CV voids the warranty…

No, life!
Manufacturer's warranty extends only to manufacturer's parts. You change the source of parts at your own risk. The law of unintended consequences applies.

With old Defenders, beefing up one part just moves the failure up the driveline; engineering being what it is, I cannot imagine the Grenadier being any different.
