Axle rebuilds

[deltamal]

Where is the best place to get an Atlas axle re-conditioned? changing the crownwheel and pinion, bearings and slipper clutches, specialists seem to be few and far between! I would need to take the car to be worked on as I have no facillities to remove the axle.....

Problem solved! Ive found a company who can refurbish my Atlas axle, "Old Ford auto services based in Bracknell, they are happy for me to leave the car with them to sort out, a bit of a trip but has to be done correctly

The axle has now been re-built by Old Ford Auto services, 3.09 CWP fitted and set up, plates stripped and cleaned and new bearings fitted to replace the noisy ones which were badly worn,  drove it back from Bracknell to Plymouth today all quiet with no problems! a job for next year will be new half shafts as the splines are worn, drag racing I guess!
