I've to replace the CV joints and probably better the complete drive shafts of my V8S. They give a knocking noise when going on/off throttle when driving slow.

Should be original Ford (Sierra/Scorpio/Granada ???) types.
What types and part numbers should I ask for in Holland?

Br, André

Thanks Mark, but are they the same for the S1-4 and the V8S?

( TVR S series alternative parts list: CV Joints: ISOTrans DR3017 (Ford Granada) and AMK TDL3017R )

I believe so although the drive shafts might be slightly longer for the S4 and V8S to accommodate the wider track - the font in this area (track width) seems to be Chris Bark (Barkychoc)

Thanks Mark.

Meanwhile I took them off and ordered new ones at manufacturer GKN, using the numbers on the original Lobros fitted. Price 80 euro each.
