It'd be like trying to drive with one wheel on ice. Why not find a used rear end and swap either the one axle or the whole rear end?

Re: MGA rear end disconnect (score: 1): Author: "mgamgb" <mgamgb@ihug.co.nz>; Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2006 15:59:20 +1200; A half shaft swap on its own is easy enough - but with a broken axle surely the broken stub needs to be removed, any swarf inside the diff/housing needs cleaning, which at least involves draining the; /html/mgs/2006-07/msg00219.html (8,554 bytes)
