Jules Martin Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 The gaiter on one of my halfshafts is kaput. I've removed the halfshaft, cleaned it up, ground off (!)the metal part of the gaiter but for the life of me can't work out how, even if I can get one, a new gaiter can be fitted. Anyone any bright suggestions? I don't really want to have to pay £200.00+ for a new shaft if someone can point me in the direction of a supplier/fitter;- preferably in the Tunbridge Wells area. Any help gratefully received, Jules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oilyhands Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 The gaiters are Sierra fitment, full details of fitment are in the Haynes Sierra manual, coincidentally I know a man who knows a man etc.etc. who has the Sierra manual on CD.. Oily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
