Hey,

Not necessarily. What it means is that Mitsubishi dont sell the individual parts, just the whole. I can possibly get that part cheaper direct from Japan new, but if I was you id be trying for 2nd hand. I thinkI might have one if you want to go down that path. You may also be able to replace the joint with aftermarket.

I don't want to go 2nd hand because it's just going to flog out again but if you could get me a cheaper quote from Japan that would be awesome and if you know any where I could get a after market one that would be good too
Thanks again
