CV Shaft Assembly Holden Colorado RG 6/2012-6/2016 Lifted Vehicles (Circlip Style)
Length: 625mm OEM Length Fitment: Suits Standard Height - 2" Lift
*This is for a SINGLE CV Shaft Assembly to suit Left or Right-hand side.
Please Note: Earlier models have a Circlip type CV assembly (this one being sold) the later models have a nut (this will not suit) Be sure to check your vehicle before purchasing.
Roadsafe CV Shaft Assemblies are manufactured using "high quality" CV Joints, Boots and Axles etc. All components are machined on the latest CNC equipment using top quality materials and coatings which will ensure long life and reliable performance in all conditions.
The CV Joint Boots used on the GSP CV Joints are made from quality Neoprene which lasts much longer than the standard rubber boots many other manufacturers use.
Roadsafe CV Shafts are tested for shear & load strength and also have a rust preventative coating.
Our Roadsafe CV Shafts assemblies are supplied complete to include all necessary hardware and are guaranteed to fit correctly as per OEM Specs.

Important Notice – Shorter Driveshafts for Suspension Lift
This shorter driveshaft is only suitable for lifted vehicles and should only be used when the standard driveshaft is too long and bottoms-out from the lift. To confirm whether a shorter driveshaft is required for your suspension lift, remove the nut or circlip retaining the standard driveshaft to the hub and push the outer CV joint back towards the differential while the vehicle is on level ground.
If there is around 25mm of movement then there is no need to replace the standard driveshaft. If there is little or no movement then the standard driveshaft is too long and should be replaced with a shorter shaft. The use of this shorter driveshaft when not required for your suspension lift may result in driveshaft failure which will not be covered by warranty.
Driveshaft inspection, shaft length & cv boot adjustment guidelines
- The maximum suspension lift value should only be used as a general guide. Other modifications can affect driveshaft angles and geometry.
After installing driveshafts, inspect them at full suspension drop and at ride height. Ensure:
- No contact with suspension, steering or chassis components.
- Shafts are not over-extending or bottoming out (see guide below).
- If necessary, adjustments can be made by removing small clamp, then extending or compressing CV boot to optimal position, and reinstalling CV clamp.
- Boot adjustments must be performed with vehicle at ride height, as this represents the position the vehicle will spend most of its operational life in.
- Please note: Vehicles that have been excessively modified may require complete CV boot replacements to achieve proper clearances.
Any such replacements are not included in the driveshaft purchase and will incur additional cost.
- Remove the hub nut or C-clip holding the outer CV joint in place.
- Reinstall the wheels and lower the vehicle to normal ride height.
- Measure the position of the CV stub (thread tip) when:
- The outer CV joint is fully seated against the hub.
- Then push the shaft inward towards the differential and measure how much the stub has moved.
More than 40mm plunge consider using a longer shaft: shaft is likely too short and may result in inner joint
internals coming away from inner joint housing. Recommended further inspection:
- Remove inner CV joint boot while the old shaft is still in the vehicle at ride height.
- Inspect the distance between the CV joint internals midpoint and the edge of joint housing.
- Internals midpoint: tripod internals will be the midpoint of tripod roller and joints using ball bearings the midpoint will be the centre of the ball.
- Performed pre- installation inspections on the original driveshaft unit.
- Confirmed the correct driveshaft to use for application (longer, Shorter or Same length).
- Conduct inspections after installing new driveshafts.
*A professional fitter is recommended when fitting CVs to avoid tearing of the rubber boot or damage to the shaft either during the installation or when in use after installation. Warranty of damage caused by self fitment may not be processed.
** Roadsafe CVs are supplied by manufacturer GSP. GSP group is the leading manufacturer of automotive driveline components for the worldwide aftermarket. The company was established in 1985 and produces drive shafts, constant velocity joint kits, hub assemblies wheel bearings and rubber-to-metal components. As such, some packaging may reflect our various suppliers that sell the GSP driveshaft.
