driveshaft problem! and a couple of pics

[robwsurf]

As i said before had the newly named "ballache" problem last week! but on stripping it down the part the boot goes onto is bent quite badly, is not round anymore, do you think this could be the reason for the balls falling into the boot?

should they be able to get out of the cage and into the boot?

should i try putting it back round again or is it not meant to be round?

if it is i m not sure i should heat it to get it back into shape, changing properties and all that


got a load more pics just need to sort them out and post them soon
