    Is GKN the same as OEM halfshafts

    I dont think there are any issues with my half shafts right now, but I am putting in a new diff all new bushings drive shaft etc on my S54 swap and I figured why not replace them as well since the ones in there have over 205,000 miles on them and I am sure they are original.

    Not that I want to spend the money I just figure it would be easier when the cars apart and since almost everything else will be new why not.

    So I found these they are not the cheap FEQ ones they are GKN and basically they are close to the same price as OEM ones but I dont need to send in the core.

    Should I just go with these? From what I read they are the OE supplier.
