disk braked back axle for a mk1-5

Postby Luke » Wed Jul 08, 2009 9:06 pm

FOR SALE - my disk braked mk1 axle :D

Fully working & tested, it's been on my van for 2 years, i've only replaced it with a stronger lower ratio LSD axle - if i had space i would without a doubt keep this :)

it will fit any mk1/2/3 strait up but to go on a mk4/5 it will need the shocker mounts turning round - i can do this for you if you wish :D but if fitted to a mk4 or 5 rememebr this is a narrower axle so you'll need deep dish wheels to fill the arches :!: the axle has been re-engineered to accept mercedes wheels - it could accept VW or granada wheels but would need a little modding :D

it will need a certain amount of mechanical ability to fit, you'll need to mod the handbrake cable and weld or bolt some mounts to the chassis but i can give full help back up etc. for anyone who wants it but isn't 100% sure of how to fit it

it's also got tramp bar brackets welded to it so for anyone wanting tramp bars you half way there :lol:

also a spare pair of half shafts but there wont be any disks or calipers - they are available off the shelf but i've used them on my new axle so you'd need to get some, and also a handbrake cable :)

the origanal diff i broke but ive replaced it with a 4:54:1 and it was quiet when i drove it to the stockyard and back - thats the only miles ive done on it :)

if you want pics have a read though this thread on how i built it :arrow: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2961

the price ........ £200

i understand this isnt the sort of thing many people will want but for the right person it's a steal - the amount of work ive put in the testing and cost of machining makes it worth that - it's 1/3rd the cost of the replacement axle :lol:

i really dont have anywhere to keep this so i need it gone soon - if your interested and need to know more either post here or PM me :D
