Guys,

Over the last few days I have been dooing some work on the beach buggy. Problem is when i stripped the front axle the 4 torsion arms are very badly damaged. I know these can be replaced but the list of parts to be replaced is increasing

To rebuild the axle I have I'll need 4 torsion arms with new ball joints. New tube bearings and oil seals. New Steering box and new trackrods.

So I'm thinking it might be easier to pick up a complete axle. Anyone know where there is one, I have new dropped spindles but I would be looking for everything else one the front axle. A 2" narrowed one would be even nicer.

Let me know if you know of anything.

George
