Can you just replace the whole half shaft, surely there must be loads of them around, dime a dozen

You need to remove the large nut inside the hub. The nut is secured by a special lockwasher which you need to remove first to get the nut loose, or you will not get the socket onto the nut.

Leave the wheel on and on the ground when removing the nut as the handbrake will not hold the hub securely enough by itself to allow you to crack the nut loose.
