Desperation! – Breakers Please!

Has anyone got contact details for breakers likely to have a Manual NA diff?

 

At the moment my car is off the road due to the diff blowing up. I’ve tried members on here but so far had no luck. I’ve also tried local breakers.

 

I’m now at the point where I’m willing to phone any breakers to find one. I’ll pay the postage or travel if I have to. Anywhere will do, I’ve searched on Google but it’s not bought much up.

 

I’ve now got no transport, I live in the middle of nowhere, with no buses.. and I’m struggling to get to work. Any help would be much appreciated ;)

 

Thanks,

 

Rob

no, auto won't fit apparently... it's a differnt ratio. Thanks for the offer though :) .. Just had a call already from a breakers in Rochdale.. £150 and i can get it tomorrow... sounds promising :)

 

Yeah 247 spares are pretty good. I did i test search a while back for something, cant remember what it was. Didnt really expect anything but about an hour later i had had calls from about 6 breakers with the part ready to ship.

I hope you have more luck than I did. I suspect you are talking about "Japs of Rochdale" :

The switch never did turn up, and had clearly never been sent - despite the fact that they repeatedly told me they had sent it - although they quoted different days each time I called. I guess they have some parts - but just because they say they have yours (and have sent it) doesn't seem to mean very much.....

Yeah, I was a bit sceptical so I’m going to go to the actual place tomorrow afternoon so I can see the part before I buy it. My mate wants to look at a car in Manchester anyway. Can’t be bothered with them sending me the wrong part.. :D That’s unless I find one cheaper before then. 247 spares = filled in the form and had a phone call 5mins later. Then another call after 20mins from a place in Cambridge but they wanted £200 + Vat.

 

Cheers for all your help guys, much appreciated & hopefully I can get fixed up :)
