[DeTomaso] Half shaft questions

[Asa Jay Laughton]

My folks here worked at cross-referencing the number for quite some 
time, including using some of the cross-references in the GKN 
cross-reference.  No luck.  Appears to be a European (or at least 
non-US) available part.

I called Wilkensen and have four news ones on the way.  :)

And for those that may not have known, Steve did a huge one-time buy of 
deTomaso parts by working closely with Santiago to get them 
manufactured.  That's one of the reasons prices have come down so far on 
many parts (like the ball joints).  If you are looking for stock parts, 
Steve is the guy to call.
