Diff casing for hymer camp 52

Hello all, Having got a Hymer camp 52 some years ago and joined the Wild Campers then. We have had one problem after another (sometimes this happens).
It appears that a bolt came loose in the gearbox and tried to pass the diff crown wheel ...successfully ... by cracking the diff housing ... not so good. Only hair line cracks but quite a few.
So I would like to ask, does anyone have a spare diff housing or gearbox for the Citroen / Peugeot / Talbot 5 speed 2.5 turbo engined Hymer Camp 52 (1990)
Then, perhaps we can get it on the road and meet you all, at last!

have a look on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/Motorhome-Parts-Accessories/169486/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw= quite often see them being broken for parts

hi
could you not get the cracks welded up.

Not that good a job, if it is gone through from the inside might be worse than it looks.. When welding you must get the oil off completely and it will stiil stink like, there is nothing else like it, and might still go pop a few times when flashpoint is hit.

A friend needed a replacement S/H gear box and there were none in the UK.
He got his re-built.
Would suggest you try welding first
