Default Anyone had experience with the eBay BA cv shafts?

Inner left CV went bang on my MkII BA XR6T.

I've been warned about aftermarket CV shafts, so was wondering if anyone has had experience with these guys

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FORD-FALC...item43abe4c34a

Brand new left hand one from Fraud is $900+
Billet ones from Nizpro and other mobs are $1500 - $1700..

The right shaft has about 2-3mm of movement in and out which makes me want to change it.. The BA is putting out 337kw at the wheels.

Bought a similar set a year ago from a seller in Syd. Great quality product and takes torture well.

Wait edit that... these were the guys. Just double checked. Good piece of kit for a great price. My car hammers these things with no issues at all.

For anyone who was/is wondering or waiting for feedback... These shafts have handled the power that my XR6t is putting out since early January with no issues.

I have in my shed 2 new shafts with Ford part number SX3A427A or the Unidrive (OEM) 052-015 V8 LHS. V8 may use the same as the turbo. Call Ford and find out.

Just had a look on ebay and the V8 shaft also fits the XR6T. But wont fit the N/A I6.
