I know you get two types of ren driveshafts, can't remember what the valver is. Although I am pretty confident that the boots from the GTS-X are the same as the valver shafts so I would think they are the same. |

ok gsf dont do 16v boots as suspected....so is the gts-x a 1.7? as their listings are by cc only not model.
there are 2 listings for 1.7 manual....think the choices are outer dia. somethign like 86mm and 90mm? any ideas which one? they dont know. its about 7 +vat....is it gunna cost much more to save time and get a kit from renault, or will they be usual extortionate prices?
ta kindly

the gts-x is a 1.4. Anyway the 1.4 shafts are thicker than the 16V shafts. Are you to lazy to just measure the outer dia of the joint and the shaft dia?
If you ask me nicely I may do it out of kindness, or maybe not... |

oh yeah forgot to check,....when u said use a metal tie not a plastic one will a jubilee clip be ok or does it have to be that proper ligarex strappin stuff they use as that stuff requires a proper tool which is i dont have and cant justify buyin to do one boot!!
so hopeuly a luvly jubbly will be ok? |

jubilee clkip will be fine.
Also special tool? what are ye on about boy? Most you grip with pliers pull it through bend it back bend th eother tag over, and again then snip off the excess.
The other crimpy ones just use pincers. |
