Rear driveshafts - what are they from?

[Catie]

I'm hoping for a bit of advice.....Can anyone identify what the driveshafts on the 2000 Caterham deDion are from? I'm hoping they are the same as the Merkur, since finding parts specifically for the Sierra is rather difficult in the US, but don't really know. I'd hate to purchase replacement pieces and find out they don't fit. Any and all help greatly appreciated!

Catie,

 

 

 

check with Caterham USA, or Nathan at Rocky Mountain Sportscars. I have the same year and model - the LSD is from the Sierra 4x4 I think, but the driveshafts I'm not sure about.

"On the drive shaft front: the drive shafts are specially made for Caterham. I do not know of a compatible replacement. If the guys is just trying to get one repaired I can get the parts and recommend a couple of shops who can do the work. Other than that he is going to be stuck buying a new one from a Caterham dealer."
