    Hi guys


    Driveshaft inner joint, inner race has 1 scoring as in the pictures.


    Would I get away for some years with repacking the joint with new grease and replace the boot or I should bite the bullet and pay for the new OEM inner joint as this scoring could cause an imminent joint failure leaving me stranded in the road?

    Cheers!

    I would replace - since you've already removed the unit it makes sense to replace it with new.

    As said above, replace, as that joint is knackered.

    Well... It was not only the joint... The whole car was into pieces as I swapped the oil burning engine and gearbox for a newer one... New LuK clutch, etc.
    Cheers for opinions. Will do change the joint for new
