Anyone know where there's one for sale that a) doesn't whine under loadb) isn't destined for some kit carc) isn't hugely expensive.Because I could do with one, this one whines like fuck at 40 mph.

Theres a guy in Warrington who's been breaking SD1s for as long as I remember, I'll pm you his details.

I sold my beloved Vitesse to a bloke in Warrington... wonder if it's him.

[shite_meister]

pm'dThere are or were a few people into SD1s in Warrington and there used to be an SD1 specialist based there.

They sell a lot of SD1s, so presumably have access to breakers and perhaps a stash of parts.

Hmm. Ta folks. It's bloody annoying because I'm on a mission to cure all the rattles militant Brummies engineered into it, and as the car gets quieter, the axle noise is getting more annoying.I can get a set of new axle bearings for £70, but that means faffing about for a day rebuilding the bloody thing. I'd rather buy a known quiet axle, clean it up and paint it, and throw that on. That way I can rebuild mine at my leisure.

Pete, didn't Slick 50 do a diff treatment? Maybe worth a shot if you can't get a new 'un.

Does Slick 50 stop about 3/4" of play? If so, I'll try it
