Just snapped a halfshaft...
Bloody annoying driving home at 3am in the ice and snapping one of these...
Does anyone know anywhere in the UK where I can order a second hand one for a E320? Drivers side...

just about any W124 halfshaft should work. i could be wrong though.
what were you doing to snap one. they are pretty tough. and usually you break traction before you snap a halfshaft.

I was basically accelerating from standstill with too much weight in the car and to be fair its got 225'000 miles on it. You can hear it clicking and flapping about under the rear drivers side wheel. My mate who was with me did the same thing on his 190E, it was the driveshaft. (not halfshaft, that's me talking still like I had a Ford Capri)
