So, when I bought my VX, the front prop shaft for the 4x4 was jacked up and making noise, so I worked a repair into the deal. The dealership ordered the new shaft from Isuzu for around $700.. about 4 MONTHS ago! Is it typical for parts to take this long to come from Japan? Also, are these prop shafts the same as the ones for the troopers with TOD? I have been driving my VX since I got it with no front shaft. I also completely disconnected the TOD ECU, so I'm full on rear wheel drive right now, which doesn't seem to be causing any issues. I am just suffering without my 4x4! Not to mention I have yet to see what this "TOD" is all about.. Does anyone know where I could source a used shaft and what it might cost? Any suggestions, comments? Thanks Again fellow VXers!
