I twisted the splines above the pitman arm pretty badly. It is leaking pretty good now especially since my seals have also been getting old. It is time to upgrade or replace the system. Just dusted off an Atlantic British catalog and see the price of $749.95 (includes core, but not sure if I can get the $250 back once they see mine). For that much I might as well go full hydro. Anyone have an extra one they would like to get rid of (sell/trade), or a source for a cheap one? I eventually want to go full hydro, so I do not want to dump a lot of money into this break. Thanks in advance.

P.S. Checked Rovers North, British Pacific, Atlantic British and that is it so far.

Meridian auto parts out of san diego make the best ones.
$275 plus core all shipping included is shop rate (a steal if you ask me)
The replace the bush with a bearing so they don't leak.

Thanks! Found them on the web. Any idea if they give the core deposit back for a broken one?

I don't see why they would not provided the box itself was in one piece. If the shaft is messed up that should be part of the "rebuild". Either way its better and cheaper than the usual suspects. I think discountrovers is a reseller of their boxes so they might even give you a better deal and/or work somethign out on the core.

A buddy bought one for his RR from Mohammad @europartsltd.com for between 2-3 hundred if memory serves.
