Master Yater, you were right about the vendors on Car-Part.com, first two deals fell through so far. I waited for a week from the first place and gave them a call, and they were like "oh those!? they weren't usuable." but I guess they forgot to tell me. Looks I found a wrecker in Southern VA that can do $115 shipped for the two.

annnnnnnnyway..
if you dont have it, be sure to read and memorize the last couple pages of this:
http://www.y8spec.com/miata_tech/DIFFERENTIAL.pdf
particularly the part about some magical GIANT micrometer that can measure over 7 inches. wtf. I don't have one. you'll need something that can get you in the ballpark. it can be an adjustable long-arm caliper/divider thing like this:
and a ruler.

now those are mine sort of instructions!
so correction....it's going to be $105 shipped for both axles...that third vendor fell through but this 4th one had them in hand and confirmed ABS and usable condition and are mailing out today.

oh yeah, just to be clear, when i got my "good" set, the first few threads were bunged up badly and the tip was a little mushroomed. i didn't feel like hassling to return them, so i fixed it with a vice and a grinder.

wow this last wrecker worked out great.
car-part.com said $50 each....when I called to order they charged me $40 each, so $80 in parts. $25 to ship it up (not too bad considering the weight and got them in two days!
now to take the assembly to a machine shop :sad:

The 86-91 NA RX-7 halfshaft is similar to the 94+ Miata halfshaft with the same ~25.25" length and the same 94/95 Miata stub shaft bolt pattern of 4x110 but it uses a larger hub shaft diameter of 28 spline by 29mm.

read it again.
I'm saying, althougth the rx-7 halfshafts will bolt up to the diff. stubs, they will not fit our in hubs...so miata specific ones are a must.
