Post subject:  2016 Grand Vitara rear cv joint issue

Hi all, need some assitance in finding replacement rear inner cv heads (or full axles) or someone that can refurbish the existing shafts. The right rear inner head has a 6 bolt pattern.

Suzuki is asking between $1800 and $2200 for replacement shafts and at last count a 6 week delivery time.

history.
22 000km on car, did a trip to Fraser last year, got stuck in the sand a few times, on the way home the right rear inner cv completely disintegrated. The big clamp had dislodged and water/ sand had enterd the joint. I tried a warrenty claim as I reckoned that the clamp shouldnt just slip off. The boot had no marks on it, but suzuki declined the claim. I bought a second hand shaft as I refuse to pay $2200+ for a new shaft.

two weeks ago we went to fraser again, got mildly stuck, after a brief tow we where free when i heard a metal rattle at the back, I checked under the car and the left inner cv joint clamp was hanging around the axle and the boot had pulled away allowing sand to ingress the cv. I have partiaily salvaged the cv as I need the car.

thanks
