hehehe cheers mate

depends if you have the LAW34 conversion or not

I dont have a ZX-5, but I am guessing that the standard ZX-5 UJ's are the length Dave quoted, why are the SP ones any longer or shorter? If not then the 99mm (rear uj's) will do. I am a bit surprised that the rear are longer as all previous 4wd Kyosho cars have longer front UJ's.

the LAW34 conversion makes the rear narrower, and uses 2mm shorter drive shafts each side IIRC.
The new SP lazer has different fronts to the original. RogerM will be your best bet.

Alternatively search in the kyosho section as the lengths have been posted numerous times

Cheers Dave and also thanks Jim. I have a pair of 95 mm prototype UJs on my ZXS and its driving me crazy as they pop out all the time if I dont space the shocks.

So now I am buying the rear UJs for the ZX-5 and that should resolve my problems. Sorted!!
