Hi everyone,
Thanks for having me.

I currently live on a small 5 acre hobby farm in the Yarra Valley about 60km east of Melbourne, Australia.

I purchased a Mitsubishi D1600FD a few years back and it has been going great guns until now.

I have seized the LHS rear axle bearing which in turn has shattered the rear drive hub casing. :-(
I am seeking a new bearing and a second hand casing but I am quickly discovering that the grey imports were quite rare and no one knows much about them here.

I would appreciate any help or information on which corresponding US or Satoh models there may have been at the time, so I can try and track down some workshop and parts manuals and maybe find some part numbers to see what is available.

I am happy to pay for shipping from the US if anyone knows of anything available over there, i just need to find one first.

Thanks Scott

To TBN Scott. You have come to the right place to get answers.

Sorry to hear about your problems. How many hours are on it?

G'day Cobber and welcome to TBN from Tassie.

Ooh, bugger. I can't help you but you could post a specific question/thread in the more relevant "Mitsubishi/Satoh Forum", as this is the 'introduction' area and some members will just skip it.

Adding your location is also a help... I know of at least one TBN Member that's fairly close to you, but I'll let him chime in if he wants.

Enjoy the site.
