Just trying to help you out..... I guess that either there is something wrong with the shaft or housing you now have that makes your old one unrepairable, or it's already not a stock unit that parts can be had for, or some people just like spending..... The older I get, the more crap that comes from overseas, the more I get told "buy a Chevy, nothing available for Mopar", the further that technology " advances" (yeah right ) beyond what I currently have, the more I would rather work with what I have. Yeah there are situations where it isn't possible or even feasible, and I get that. But to replace something that is usually fixable, just for the sake of replacing it makes less sense all the time.
