Please help me source:
1] rear axle housing, part num: 46510M70A00 (Rs.2600)
2] left rear axle, part num: 44221M70A00 (Rs.860)
3] complete rear differential unit with crown,pinion,axle,et all.
What will be cost of good running used parts?

What kind of repairing/engineering is that? Replace everything before confirming where the problem is? Why used parts?

and why not sourced from Nagpur itself?

Sir

Gypsy king spares are very hard to come by in Nagpur. Waiting times of about 20 to 30 days if I place an order with Maruti. Hence I wanted help of friends located in Gypsy hubs to help procure the parts quickly.

I am looking to get this list just to have a standby differential incase I need in future considering that I have a fleet of gypsy kings now.

I will hear from the lathe about the condition of the axle tube today.

Is it advisable to repair or replace a bent rear differential tube ? Is a repaired bent tube likely to cause trouble in the future ? What do the experts recommend ?

It can be repaired BUT ideally get a new tube for peace of mind sake.

Any updates, did you get the tubes checked? Any damage to them?
