bravo x and bravo 1 regular
 
How can you tell from the outside if the drive is a bravo 1 ,or a bravo 1 X ??
I have a bravo 1 (old style housing) with dual water pick ups ,I bought it for a X drive ,but unsure if thats correct...

Your serial number should tell you, if not the B1X uses bigger U-joints than the B1, so they have a different looking retaining nut to clear the bigger U-joints.

But if you talking about lowers, the lowers are the same the B1X upper is just stronger.

Thanks ,I will have a look at the U joints and retainer to see if there,s a difference between a B1.
Is that the only difference ,or are there more internals different than a regular B1 ?
I will also try to look up the serial number on Midas to see if this pointed to a B1X

Thanks
