Front Pinion.
« on: September 14, 2022, 12:33:43 AM »
Hello All,
   I am looking for a decent front pinion for my M2. Would be happy with a decent used unit.
Thanks,
Will.

Sam Winer motors used to have a bunch of used halftrack axles.

Have you tried Kevin Lockwood, Will? He has a lot of drivetrain stuff.

Yes, unfortunatly he has non. Wish i had realized when i bought the one i have that it was wrong. It looked odd to me at the time but i tossed it into the storage and forgot all about it till i tried to use it. Now things are difficult to get! Thats how it goes sometimes...

Just wanted to say thanks to every one that has helped me with trying to locate a pinion. The end result has been a bust though. So at this point im going to have to put the axle together withought the diff unit in it untill i can locate a good pinion. Im sure one will turn up at some point.
