Lotus Elan +2 : CV joint Drive Shafts 

Yea, I’ve heard the donuts you get these days days are crap 😊

I have the Mick Miller CV joints on my +2, best £400 I ever spent on the car, it transformed the slow speed in traffic movement, no more kangarooing & power take up was instant, not having to wait for the donuts to load up.

Thanks 👍

Yes I bet they are easier with adjustable seats. Did you do a conversion on the rear of your Elan?

@@ianj3663 yeah, I did a video on it. Put konis in at the same time

Hi Tony, I used a 7/16 reamer. The first drive shaft I fitted I didnt ream the holes and as you saw in the video I struggled a bit. The second one I did ream the holes and managed to get the drive shaft in much easier and without having to compress the springs. Good luck with your install

@@ianj3663 thx..7/16 is the nominal stud diameter and is too tight on mine; I deformed the thread on one stud trying to bang it in, needed to withdraw (slide hammer!) and re thread the damaged stud; just found and bought a 29/64 reamer on ebay..Hope that will be OK.. thx for the idea...Tony
