Leaf or coil over springs ??

these would have had 13" wheels on them

Its for a ford 10 special really lightweight expect to use 13" wheels although it has 15" Ballany wheels at the moment on a pop Axel (and no there not for sale ) Keith

the viva and mazda axles here keith are about 54" wide overall

with the choices i suggested kev he should be ok. english ratios are available into the high 4's from memory and suzuki jeeps have a tall wheel/tyre so the ratios ought to be fairly low (high numerically) too.
neil.

should pay about 500 to have an axle and shafts narrowed if you get one thats to wide

I think the Suzuki Vitara axle is not offset and also uses coil spring mounts if required

as it happens anglia ones are more expensive as the escort boys want them to fit bigger wheels to their escorts. and 100e owners want them too etc etc. they're the narrowest factory 'english' ford axle so in demand.
if you want really narrow cut the long side of a suzuki axle down to centre the diff and fit 2 short side halfshafts.
neil.

got a mazda 1 here keith or a viva 1 £75 each
