well, of course i know a half-shaft isn't a quality control problem. the point was...it's hard to find one in great shape, regardless of milage.
was this because:
they are fragile?
prone to abuse?
i picked, against the odds, 3 bad examples?
i live in st.louis. not only could i not find a manual trans countour/mystique, i couldn't even find a 6cyl with less than 100k miles on the clock! that drove me to the much, much more expensive x, because i love the body style. lo and behold, of those, i couldn't find one that was mechanically sound.
geez, it shouldn't be that hard!
