hi there i have severe knocking from what i think is the "inner" CV joint (closer to the gearbox end of the shaft rather than the wheel end?
i had it on the ramp for a look and took a photo -

arrow "A" shows a section of drive shaft (the orange arrow) that is moving horizontally by 5-10mm im guessing due to the CV joint being destroyed?
arrow B shows what i think is the inner CV joint which is compleatley knackered.. all the grease has escaped as you can see its up the back of the sump and allover the lambda.. it moves up and down and side to side alot so the bearings must be destroyed.. now im not sure what is the exact part number for this so i want some 1 to clear up which is the replacement part i need??
i think its this?? but not 100% sure - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VAUXHALL-CALIBRA-OFF-SIDE-INNER-CV-JOINT-BRAND-NEW-/170674911329?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27bd047861
now arrow c points to what i think is the outer CV joint... there is no play in it but again there are signs grease has gone all over the rim and suspension shock so i presume i might aswell replace as im getting the other 1 done?? so again is this the correct part??

so if you could clear up if im getting the corect parts for the job and that im doing the right thing.. that would be great
or is it easier to just buy a whole new shaft !?!?
any links to those would be great?
cheers,
ste

You want the inner CV from a equal lenght shaft. I expect a motor factor could help.
