Just got my bond back from Jigsaw and i'm taken aback by the speed of it, even if it is only revving to 4000 (running in), on it's shakedown run, it
obviously has a noise from the back, a high pitch whine from the rear left between 50 and 60mph, but only under power, reliably informed that the bearing
is shot, this is a difficult job i know, but would you reccomend buying a whole recon unit from Jigsaw or Canley classics, or rebuilding it? Answers on an
email please to the forum,
cheers Calvin

I would suggest getting a pair of the 'heavy duty' or 'uprated' ones.
As you intend to give the car a bit of stick.

depends whether you have the money to spend on a pair of rebuilt COMPLETE halfshafts or are in need of being careful with the
£££s and buy a pair of rebuilt halfshafts and complete the assy yourself with new slave cyls shoes, trunnion
bush etcet.
do both sides
and cut you cloth according to your pocket
that's all there is to it really
