Hi All, Chrispy: I wouldn`t have got the new shaft from DMCH as MXI`s shaft was fine, only the joints needed recon... if the shaft was bad I would have got a new one from DMCH though. Oh I just wondered if you had anything done to to your car that had the cat removed, Ive just found half of MXI`s cat in the silenser, I was thinking about removing the guts of the cat* and just wondered if the car will run OK and pass the MOT emissions test *removing the guts of the catalyst that is, for you cat lovers out there!!! Chris: the name of the firm is Scholar engineering My uncle knows the engineering firm very well, he got me the good price. they can build engines and recon UJ`s as well as lot of other jobs...
