They also have Thing ball joints. They realy do refund shipping back to actual cost like it says in their adds. I have purchased ball joints from them, not the CVs parts.

Rick, If you want a "locker" for your thing trans there is a guy "Bruce2 from Vancouver" who has them on a regular basis. He is a very knowledgeable guy on this issue and hangs out on the transaxle forum of this site. He gets about half what you would pay directly from Quaffe for the diff. I have one on my off road Herr Kubelmann and it is a joy to turn both rear wheels in harmony. I did not get mine from Bruce but from a racing buddy on a fluke for a way low price.. Good deals come up now and then. I love mine and would buy all I could find for what I paid. Best of luck. K-mann

My comoderator has given this tip a number of times. so, I will post it once again. The only Cv and axle set up that is the "real" Thing set up comes from the 924/944 Porsche. There are tons of them out there at a way lower price than a T-2 Bus ( smaller balls) and "Thing only" There are also a load of folks selling individual parts to build "Thing" CVs that will say "Lobro compatible" that does not mean Lobro... The best deal around is to find a source for 924/944 CVs that have been cleaned adn inspected. BtW... I have a source. This is not a plug but rather an offer to help those looking for low cost CVs and axles... K-mann
