That's what I mean. The circlip groove is no use with a FWD steering type CV joint. It would need to be modified (by precise grinding) to fit the normal Beta outer CV joint 'C' clip.
Having said that, some people don't bother with the outer CV 'C' clip at all, and they do vary with how well they retain the outer CV.
I had one on my Honda engined Hawk that would not come off. 'Ended up having to trash the outer CV to save the special Honda to Beta drive shaft.
Here's another thing; the X1/9 stub shaft does fit into the Beta/Integrale hub/flange. So you could have Lobros at either end of the shaft.
The only reason I looked at the short 1500 X1/9 shaft, was because of the long GTA intershaft leaving zero space for (Alfa V6 to Lancia Beta inner Lobro CV) shaft adapters.
