Help me Obi Wan...your my only hope

Post by jed1y0da » Thu Dec 09, 2010 7:21 pm

I posted a week or so ago that i thought my rear axle was broke. Well it is very broke (sheared splines and missing teeth). I basically need a 'new' one, but realise that a 'new' one is unobtainable so has anyone got any suggestions for peeps to contact?

I've already tried bongo bits and www.mazdabogo.com to no avail....

Thx in advance :)

Thats not bad service.

Yep, Bellhill seemed confident they could replace the diff with an "off the shelf" when i had a blocky front tyre...? #-o Turned out it had gone like an egg after a pothole issue..? :shock: :D All cool since! 8)
