Shipto,

... do you think the bloody cv's would split from the shafts ...

The reasoning here is that a split cv boot will throw out all the grease and this could cause the joint to dry out and size up.

Would you want a drive shaft to suddenly start thrashing about when you are driving along ?

Interestingly, it is only the outer boots that the tester is worried about.

Had to look back to see what i had said here, I wasnt questioning the reason for cv boots failing but commenting that I couldnt get the cv split fron the shaft to replace the boot, didnt go into much deatil because its not a car forum but i ended up having to take the shaft completely out and stripping the other side to get them on.

No major progress today just added the block for the screw.

I have a chain set up that moves to the right then turns and goes to the left. I can kind of draw up something if you would like to see it. I found the mechanics when I tore down a ink tray mixer on a printing press. It's not anything hard and could possibly be able to set the two point on reverse direction to what you want. Let me know and I will try to make a sketch.
