Thread: Salisbury Front Axle.. Worth the money?

Hi Juddy,
I am potentially interested in both front and rear for fitting to a 300TDI 90.
I have been reading the pro's and con's of the Salisbury axles for the defenders, both in terms of strength and clearance.....
Any idea of a rough cost delivered to West Ryde NSW 2114, for both front and rear salisburys?
Mike.

what are you going to gain strength wise with a sals? They run the same shafts, cvs, swivel housings, stubs and hubs as a rover. The housing could be considered same or even weaker than a Rover.

Yes the R+P is stronger as is the center.

It is much easier to strengthen a Rover housing and run up graded inards that will put you close to that Sals front.

Just my opinion
