Important note for repairs:
Due to the increased clevis diameter, it is important to ensure unobstructed movement after installation of the propeller shaft in the vehicle.
It is no longer possible to repair the new propeller shaft version.
The universal joint and boot of the old propeller shaft version are still available for the time being. Residual stocks of the clevis of the old version are still available in some cases.
