Default Big thanks to Mattyb@mb Developments.

After my on going saga with a juddering through the steering wheel coming out of bends/junctions etc i needed a box and diff . So on the phone to Matty i explained the situation and also what other possibilities it could be. I ordered a sti gearbox/diff and rear diff so the ratios match etc on Saturday and it turned up Wed am on a pallet, well wrapped and looked in great condition, well from a none gearbox experts point of view lol. I work in the trade so managed to get the lads to fit it, few hours later and jobs a good un. Quick road test and its great, no juddering and gear change is fine . So all in all thanks Matty and if i need any parts in the future i wont be going anywhere else.

Dan.

Good lad Matty is!! Helped me out many of years, even before he started breaking Impreza's id give him a ring and he would be round my house in minutes with his tools and sorting problems!! Probably owe him way to many beers over the years!!!

I agree, stuff I've had from him so far have had no issues with, and found him helpful and prompt. Will be seeking to buy more from him soon.

The only thing I've noticed is that when in gear there's movement of the gearstick. Previous box had a short shift fitted to it. Will it just be a case of swapping the linkage back over? If its an easy fix with the current set up I will be happy enough.

May be worth asking Alyn at AS performance about his linkage bushes things (can't think what they're called lol)

Matt's a good lad.

Speak to Alyn about the linkage bushes, like Mick says.

Oh, and your thread title should have been to me for directing you to Matt.

Aye true but it would have been the longest thread title ever, lol. How hard is to swap the linkage back over? As much as I like spending I could do with saving money.

Yep, he's a top bloke - I've purchased loads off him in the past (engines, turbos... list goes on), never had any problems and he's always on hard to offer advice. Highly recommended
