Wedge diff. beams: The nice shiny one recently fitted to my 400, replacing the item in the middle on both shots. The version in three pieces was from my 350 some years ago. It made for an interesting effect at the back! You can see the extra bracing that was introduced for later versions. So if you've got some unexplained noise or vibration at the rear, worth a look at the beam.

Is it a Jag bit or a TVR special? I guess the former. Either way are they easy to get new or is it in the realms of Dobbin's do do?

Well the new part had TVR cast into it, so I would assume the latter. Got it from TVRcarparts. C. £150 plus vat IIRC. Maybe they had a new batch cast.

Same thing happened to me - earlier design snapped into three. It's a TVR specially produced part. TVR did the changes to strengthen the design. Don't know whether TVRParts have cast a new batch but I doubt it. RT made up some steel ones - heavier and stronger?
