Hi again,

Thanks for posting Marshall Booth, and samiam4!

I looked into Car Quest and they did not have any 300SD halfshafts available .
However, I was thinking is it possible to use shafts from a 1982 380 SE? (different 126's use the same half shafts maybe?)

I asked the guy if he had any for a 380 SE but he needed to know if there was a 8mm or 12mm retaining bolt. Does anyone know which size the retaining bolt is?

I will be installing these halfshafts myself, hopefully in one day's time.

Now if those options don't pan out, I could just get the old boots replaced.

I don’t think I could save much on used axles since they are going to have old boots on them unless we could find Lobros (but those are scarce).

I honestly don't know how long the boots on now will last. 300k maybe; i really cant tell.

Thanks again for your alls help!

Al
