Further to a previous post re billett driveshafts I dropped of a couple of them off pre christmas to get some replacements made up.

Guy has been most helpful so far and they should be ready for collection this wednesday (21/1/09). Cost has been quoted at $450 a corner. Bear in mind that is just for the shaft and not for the cv joints etc. Being a bit anal and paranoid about break downs I will no doubt put new cv boots etc on them which will add to the cost.

Once I get them and had a look I will post up the guys name and contact details for anybody else.

PPG wanted $1000 a corner. Second Hand ones have been costing me $230 for a complete unit (R180 diff) so they should pay for themselves pretty quickly.

Also I have put the car up for sale. Not fussed whether it sells or not. i.e. if someone buys it then I'll build a new car and if it does not sell then I will continue to campaign it.
