Default Finding some RC10 B3 cvd driveshafts

Hi guys. I am trying to prep an RC10 B3 that my Dad gave me recently to race again. It was a basic kit, so it came with dog bones. I found a seller on Ebay who has (?) NIP sets of cvd's, and ordered a set on new years day. The feedback seemed ok, so I went for it. Since the tracking number does not work and the seller has not been able to deal with it, I am starting to think they are lost. So, I need to try and find an alternative source. I am not having a lot of luck sourcing the axles and the shafts, any of you vintage experts got an idea of where I can try?
Thanks

Yes a seller in HK, can't remember which one off the top of my head. They could still turn up yet, but the tracking code not working is not filling me with confidence. Thanks for the offer, will see how it goes. I hate being impatient sometimes!

Are B2 driveshafts the same as B3?
I know the wishbones are a different length but also that the hub offset is different. If B2 will fit then I can probably help out (U/J's though not CVD's - but brand new).

Ive got the very last pair ever sold by MIP, have to thank Mike for spending time finding the bits in the warehouse. I was contimplating selling but as in the next few years will be building a 4wd B2 so will need them. Still the cars a fun drive and still competitive even against mid motored cars.

Stu, we probably still have some B2 or B3 MIP CVD's in stock, give John a shout at the shop and he can check on them for you...

Thanks everyone. I was asked to wait another week (until Monday) before seeing what they are going to do next. If that passes I will need to seek elsewhere ie here!

I'd take the dogbones off yer 'ands if you don't want 'em.

Not interested in CVD's for my Cobrat 3 that's running B3 rear arms and castor blocks.
