I've never seen that drive shaft setup on a fiesta mk2 before.
Very simerlar to the galaxy shafts and they always break.
Can't you just use normal xr2 cv joints & drive shafts in that gear box or get a newer type bc gear box ?

This shaft is only on 1.4 cvh mk2s. You can just use normal xr/base spec shafts but I was given this one for free

Gave it a drive round the front garden and it's spot on now I just need to put the carpet in and sort the hand brake cable. I also bought a XR/Ghia centre console off ebay as the sport didnt come with one from the factory. In reality they're proper povo spec cars. I
