new front differential - is it worth it

Post by bongoblack » Sat Aug 25, 2012 4:58 pm

A fairly miserable holiday in cornwall...

Paid garage there for a new wishbone after close encounter with a rock on the left front wheel. Now, after bongo came home on a flat-bed truck, local garage say a new front differential is needed.

Can someone pls advise the cost this might be?

Great pity that this bloke was not around in the early days Mike. He would have saved us all lots of ebay frusteration and agro not to mention all the stupid prices we had to pay.
