boldy205 74 Posted May 12, 2022 Hi, I need a full set of 4 CV boots for my 309 gti drive shafts. I'm having trouble finding the outers in particular. Does anyone know if they are the same as 1.9 205 Gtis? Thanks Matt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,619 Posted May 12, 2022 Identical to a 205 1.9 bar the length, which is why they are the same part number so that wont help... AUTODOC should have something, I've also found gkn on ebay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boldy205 74 Posted May 12, 2022 I've found the GKN, only the inners though. I'll take a look at Autodoc. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DamirGTI 322 Posted May 12, 2022 GKN = Loebro = Spidan - all the same boots (GKN) but in different boxes and often sold at +/- different prices between the three . Failing that , go for : SKF , Sasic or Wurth (Wurth universal boots) . D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thijs_Rallye 86 4 Cars Posted May 13, 2022 Be aware that if you have Rzeppa CV joints (OEM 120 hp and up) the boots might differ from the ones that are fitted to many aftermarket driveshafts, since those mainly use tripod CV joints at the wheel end. The Rzeppa ones can be recognized by the additional cage in the joint and consisting of 6 (or more, memory is foggy) balls in the joint. Also the whole joint comes off the shaft whilst the tripod joints often don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
