Might be a couple of cheap ones on Trade Me at the moment, shouldn't cost much, but I would take it to an engineer and get it beefed up, and even made adjustable you are thinking of going for a higher lift in the future....

I've got one for sale. But like Dave said, get it strengthened as factory ones are just too weak. PM me if you want it.

The main reason for the breakage is my old safari is still std so the panhard is running horisontal so kinda in the way of rocks the diff rolls over
