182 Drive Shafts - FFS

[Dredd]

I've decided it's time to replace both my driveshafts (CV joints clicking).
Apparently the drivers side shaft could be one piece, or could be two piece (different part codes). Also there might be different width ABS rings (8mm or 15mm) - again different drive shaft part codes.
Is there a definitive way of identifying what drive shafts I need to order, short of taking them off the car first to have a look?
Thanks,
Dave.

Yes?

@STEVE.M - its a standard 182 (no cup packs)

 

[STEVE.M]

Any 182 is going to have a 2 piece RH shaft.
Cup packed cars will have a 15mm width ABS ring.

I'll have a look at the weekend and make sure I haven't got some sort of Frankenstein car before ordering them
Thanks :up:
