Front diff needed
Well,
The only Syncro 16" (2.1DJ) from Canary Islands (not mine, mine is 14") needs a new or a good second hand front differential... The only thing I know while talking to my friend was that the front diff locking teeth were a bit broken and the mechanic says to buy a new diff.
Where can I get one for my friend? I have visited Bernd Jaeger and Busschmiede but I have not seen anything, just the pinion gear and the ring/crown gear...
Any help?

D'ya think it'll go in our 22Kg luggage limit if we happen to spend a week in Tenerife... but don't think bucket flights do extra allowances, apart from golf clubs and flowers back from Madeira.
Quite rare for the diff-lock pawls to break I would have thought, trying to climb some lava flows with a broken front CVJ perhaps
Good luck sorting it out for him...
You really need to find a tame Iberia airline captain... no limit on their luggage allowance, I bet
