Make sure you get the right gearing as mine came with a 8/41 which was only good for 45mph. What you want for a good all round is a 11/43 which at 56 mph will be 2500rpm and 60mph will be around 2800rpm,this will leave first gear a bit low which is good for very steep hills and top just slightly over geared and at 70mph will not go any faster but just above the green band on rev counter. Im running a ex lib bus on a 59 e 12 alloy g/fibre body at 6.3 ton. I have not tried a 10/41 so cant comment but it seems to be a common diff ratio ,expect to pay between £250 to £400 for a heavy duty axle complete with hubs etc. |

Steve, How did you get on with the rear axle? What ratio did you get? Can I ask how much it cost to have it fitted and how long it took? Cheers |

I have a twin wheel axle for sale if anyone needs one. All I can say is that at 60mph the engine is doing about 2500 rpm |
