we reckon it was partially cracked in japan by front end damage before being cut and sent over here..

5 years later it finally let go. We managed to find a replacement in alice springs.

"You can get it any old how... matter of fact I've got it now... Comes to mind...

Glad you got a replacement part.

Lucky! Yeah dont you hate, when you're in middle of nowhere and you realised that you don't have specific parts, its annoying when it happens but lucky you found one!
