Hi all.
I am new to the TVR scene and bought my first Wedge last year and been having fun with it this year.
When replacing the UJ's on the rear driveshafts, the cups did slide in easier than I thought they would (no press or vice required) and when getting the car MOT'd yesterday, the inspector said there is a bit of play in the yokes. Having had a closer inspection, I could see movement at the yokes.
Is there a way of boring and sleeving the yokes or does anyone know of where I can get replacement driveshafts?
Thanks.

Hi, Personally I wouldn't sleeve the yokes....they look thin enough to me.
Also you don't say which Wedge you have. There were 2 different sizes of drive shaft. The earlier 280/200 (and possible first V8's... not sure) had a smaller drive shaft. The later bigger V8's having a beefed up version. I think they are interchangable but if you already have the larger version I'm not sure I would downgrade. Just mention it in case you were not aware and end up with something you weren't expecting. I would say the beefed up versions are also more expensive. The UJ's are also different.
