I have an Atlas here for sale but I've offered dibs to someone else last year! I'll try to remember who it was to see if they still want it.

Its complete with brakes, drums etc. I cut the Capri brackets off to weld my own mounts on. It seemed to be in good condition with no unusual noises.
I have no idea what the going rate is for an Atlas axlea

Scrolling through my U2Us, I offered first dibs to Rallyingden and then Scootz so I'll send them a u2u to see what the score is. Sorry for the faffing!

Other parties contacted and both have had a change of plan so don't want the Atlas.
Having a peep in the shed, I have two Atlas axles! The one previously described, and one that was sold to me as an LSD wich had discs and calipers on it. However, it soon became apparent that it wasn't an LSD when I dumped the clutch and it went bang. It was a badly welded diff. It still has the diff in, but its useless, and it still has the halfshafts and what looks like mk3 Escort calipers, but no discs.
Offers invited!

What would you take for the axle with the furked diff? £25.00 ?
