Wanted,new TZD Turbo driveshaft.

Post by citro-geoff »

I am looking for a new or very good offside drive shaft for my '93 TZD Turbo estate. I have a vibration coming through the car at around 70,and I can drive through it at 80+(tried it on the way to Italy!!!). I have had the alloys balanced twice,and checked wheel bearings,joints etc(I repaired Cits for others for the last 40+ years,know a little bit about them!!!) I have come to the conclusion that it is down to a worn triaxe,which is not too surprising as the car has done 270k,and apart from the engine being replaced at 236k is all original.I have tried all suppliers and specialists,and been told they are no longer available.CV joints are available,not complete shafts.This is my daily driver,and I want to keep it doing so. Does anybody know if a Xantia inner shaft is inter changeable with the BX? I know the CV joint is different. I don't have any Xantia shafts in the garage,although I might if I scrap the wife's old saloon!!! :roll:

Try

They also sell joints alone.

Eurocarparts may also have some - have a look at their on-line shop - the stock seems to come and go a bit.
