I remember thinking "can't believe it's gonna cost so little to fix this car, usually even the most minor repair is at least a ton!"... True to form I guess!

I have tripod and inner CV joint in stock (brand new) . Can do a special deal, as I want a part that Lee has . Tell me your best price you can get these for, I'll match it, and then subtract the Ł100 that Lee wants for his sub frame .

Inner CVJ is the only bit that's okay! That broken outer joint has also damaged the splines on the shaft...

Porkie, you got a shaft yet?

Don't wanna pay Martoon or Rainbum prices

Anyone got a passenger front Cos shaft for sale?

Might just take the shaft out of the inner joint and drive it up to Brum 3WD..?

There would be no money exchange required, as I want something Lee has agreed to sell me . So it would be mutually beneficial to do the deal, I also said I would MATCH your best new price . Can send special delivery tomorrow as well .

Dan,
If he gets a shaft, he still needs the outer joint . I am giving him an option so he doesn't have to buy one and I don't have to hand over money for something I also want . Win-win .
