I spotted those a while back, been keeping an eye on his sales for them ever since.

In fact i posted them a question about the manufacturer only this morning. I'll let ya'll know what the answer is when/if i get one.
Been racking my brain thinking who the dealer must be, has to be one of very few people being based where they are. I've got an idea who i think it is but not sure.

PetenAli, you got any ideas?

..so long as you don't plan on doing any wading as that part is missing the v-ring seal, and don't mind replacing the joint every six months 'cos that's how long it'll last.

It,s a pattern part, probably from China, made from dubious materials, and not original spec, go to Brickwerks.

buy GKN or LOBRO (same company) . You'll probably never have to change it again. so brickwerks, GSF(if you ask what ones they are selling) syncroservices and a few others

Brickwerks.......do it once do it properly that's my theory, unless you have wing nuts on the suspension parts for quick replacement. :lol:
