Ya I was pretty pissed when I checked my bank account the next day lol especially knowing that I have Jack and crown reserve at the house. Also got a bottle of crown extra rare that I picked up for a steal about two months ago but I havnt found a good enough occasion to open that yet.

I have a Dremel you can use...or I can help you out....but let me see what kind of placement you need.....really, it shouldn't be that hard.

PM me and we'll chat.

Set it up my brotha ....or some other place where most of us can get to easily. " Meet " success usually depends on access-ability and time of day or night.

I would definitely start small, check fitment, drill/Dremel again, check fitment, repeat ! Take your time. Also I have some resin that you can put over the cut area so it will be smooth & shiney again.

If you need it just let me know.
Ok, here is the delima......

junk yard....closer to you are the ones in haltom city..

start with www.car-parts.com and then call call call..

EDIT:
wait, do you need axles?? or "stub axles" cause if you need axles, then yes junk yard, if you need stub axles, then the junk yard wont part with them as they will want to sell the diff "complete"

i belive Z1 motorsports in Georgia has the stub axles for $140.....

why though? you get the wrong quiaffe or an os giken?? and need the stub?? if you got the giken, you can just have a machine shop turn down the clip groove...
