I get the impression the remans are actually quite fine to use. When researching replacements for that 944 S2 I owned for a bit I found the SCCA and PCA Porsche guys were using remans and they were lasting many years of race use. Lots and lots of Spec Miata guys do the same.
All this talk about shafts and so forth reminds me that I've been lucky to not hav a U Joint or half shaft failure on my racing Z, but so far it hasn't happened. And they are definitely old. Maybe I should take those off and service them before I have a failure.
