Anybody got a good used axle for an '81 380sl?

The left axle of my 81 380 seems to be knocking when I coast after decelerating, and occasionally when I shift into reverse, and the other usual suspects seem to be fine. So, I'm looking for a good replacement.

EPC part # is 107 350 57 10. Please message me with details, price and shipping costs if you have one to sell.

Thanks very much.

Steve

Are you absolutely positive its not the short link that sits right behind the wheel? I had the same issue with my 380 SL, and i too swore it was the axle clunking, it sounds exactly like its coming from the axle.

Thanks for the suggestion. But it's definitely the axle.
