Simon, can you get them for LHD?

Well if it goes again at least I know you can get one, don't fancy a second hand one with the reputation.

Looks like the discussion moved on from my broken gearstick, a solid one would definately be nice.
Anyway the camping trip was saved, I tapped the shaft about 40mm each way (basically as far as I could get the tap in) then joined them with threaded bar, then welded the join. Can't see it snapping at that position again.
We went camping with a Lifted Land cruiser and a Nissan Nivara, all on sand, the syncro held itself well, as per usual everyone was amazed that my little van could keep up. No action photo's (too busy driving) sorry.
