Ford Transit Forum

any mk2 transit that has a decent single rear axle, doesnt matter on the condition of the rest of the van. need too many parts for the rear so decided to just get a whole new rear axle.
live in somerset and im willing to travel.

Have you tried a scrappie, or considered fitting a Mk3? The Mk3 thing works for the twinwheelers. a second hand axle is usually about £100 conmplete

sorry mate think you told me that before. wil look into it cos £175 is waaaaaaaaaaay too much for my liking

Just an idea, but worth a thought, out paint shop had a Mk3 SWB high top 'abandoned' on them. It was a few weeks ago and he wanted too much for it without papers, but I will call him again and ask if his price has gone down! It's also a good diesel engine so selling the engine on would finance the deal, or you could swap over the axles, nock it out again!!

Well spotted Luke, are there any mirrors with it I wonder?
