Got a bugger uni on the front shaft (diff end). Anyone know how much this is going to cost roughly. As the shops here are all shut for the weekend. I will pull the drive shaft out and re-install myself. Just need a guess at parts and labour to fix it for budgeting.

Turps you should get it repaired for around $100. There was a complete front shaft on EBAY not sure if it has ended. I think is was under Nissan in car parts.

Thanks for that Kyle, I found it. Might make some phone calls on monday. Just thinking it might be better to get mine done then I know they are new. As that one will probably cost $80 landed to my door. So not much cheaper.

Well got this repaired today. I took the shaft off, with assistance (bugger me the bolts where tight). And had my friendly back yard mech replace the uni and fill everything full of grease.
Cost Breakdown-
2x replacement UNI's = $40
Labour = $50 (but had him working on my buggered Magna as well).
So I was pretty happy with that, Just need to go pick it up and refit now.
Since they where pretty cheap after I do some susp work, I will replace the rear ones as well.

Get stuffed. But yeah you are right. It probably is the first. Go put your car back together. And leave me alone
