recondintioning intermediate shaft

[NicholasJackson]

I should be getting one soon, waiting to hear back from someone.

And i was wondering if anyone has information on reconditioning them.

Lately ive been efficiency conscious and the amount of energy that can be wasted on bearings i want to get the most out of them.

The kia rio axle is a replacement for the intermediate shaft needed for the g-series tranny.

Nar mate, im in the last week of uni so im neck deep in work.

I was thinking of coming around not this weekend but the next?

[Brayy]

Yeah sounds good.. im not to sure what im doing with the car atm.. need to get cash for it to be put back on the road.. i can strip the grille and lights by then..

[NicholasJackson]

You dont have to do it, i can help you do it when i come over.

I just bought my intermediate shaft yew, 40 dollars!

[Brayy]

Score.. yeah im thinking about buying a subi.. and projecting the festy.. either way.. removal of the grille and lights is a 10min job.. i just need to plastic wrap it so it dont get more badly ruined. xD

Interesting, i'd say they are f series axles. But i didnt think they'd fit in an auto aspire (WB Festiva) the auto e series must be the same as manual f series? axle wise

^^ those are F-series axles.

The bearing in the intermediate shafts are replaceable, I've never seen one go bad though. It's a beefy bearing, finding one shouldnt be too difficult

Hey this is a little off topic but, you know how XR2 halfshafts are so hard to find?

Well, correct me if I'm wrong but-

The axles arn't hard to find, it's the intermediate shaft.

No such thing as a E series auto. The festiva uses the F3A.
