Go to Hall 4X4 in bayswater and get a good second handy for about $60.

Repco quoted me $220.00 each knew and couldn't even tell me who the manufacturer was.

Better off with a genuine second hand unit then a Chinese knock off new one.

Except maybe the ones Leeham gets.

Cheers

Most of them have hardly ever seen 4WD engaged.

I agree with Struth I now only get replacement shafts from the wreckers as they charge me $60 and get a complete toyota shaft that last a lot longer than the chinese one's
Or you can order some from here for $250 plus postage

Can`t go wrong with Halls 4x4 I get a lot of parts there.. and haven`t had any dramas yet.. plus they are close to home so it saves a trip to dandenong. be carefull about "cheap nock off`s" they will most likely let you down when you least expect it... see the latest issue of 4x4 australia they have a good write up on the differences between genuine and cheeper knock off parts..
