Abs Ring On Drive Shaft

[Flowerpot]

Can you change the abs toothed ring on the driveshaft on a gs300without changing the whole shaft

[GOLO]

From the workshop manual, it looks like the front one is a yes but the rear is no!

It gives no instruction on how to remove the abs ring on the rear, it just gives the usual warning not to damage it.

The front can be replaced.

Agree with above, front yes, rear is part of the outer CV joint on the drive shaft.

Thanks golo and tigerfish any ideas where I can a driveshaft or the cv joint they don't seem to be available anywhere I have tried loads of places but to no avail

If your local motor factors can't get them, then it will be a breakers or Lexus/Toyota.

Been in touch with 247 spares and they give me 4 quotes ranging from £45 to £60 inc delivery for complete drive shaft with 90 day warranty,has anyone dealt with them in the past ? If so are they ok ?

Hi, there is a re-manufactured CV joint which includes the abs ring on eBay now, £23 inc pp. If you want to search for it its item 121050035750.

I don't know if you are doing it yourself but as you will have to take the drive shaft out anyway just change the CV, they are easy to do.

They are for the mk1, I believe the OP's is a mk2.

He has a 2000 on his profile? so I assume its a MkII.

Pity its for a MKI
