Every time I go into Tim Fry Landrovers in Cheltenham and ask for bits for my stage 1, he tries to sell me a brand new front axle complete. Might be worth a try if you are loaded!!!
There was a lad on the lro site selling a pair of stage 1 axles as well.
Regards Huzey.

are you a member of any clubs?

I got mine to turn it into a weekend camper and disappear off into Wales to photograph birds of prey, but so far I have been round the M25 to pick up bits and pieces and down to Poole to do the same and haven't turned it into the camper yet or been to Wales in it!! I am in the series 3 club and am trying to join the series 2 club as well but seem to be having a bit of trouble.
Hi Tel.
Never made it to Malvern this time, or any Land Rover shows at all this year. Never even got to Sodbury in April, but am hopefuly going next month.
All the best,
Huzey.

Will do, though at the rate I am getting on with it, it will be at least 10 years before I finish it.

Maxi drive in Australia will have axles on the shelf I bought a set for about AUD 700 they are made from AMS-6418 HY-Tuff so they are about 213% stronger than the standard 10 spline axle if you use these axles your axle problems will dissapear.
Do a google search and you will find thier details
