iannotts Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Can someone confirm this for me, I have a 88" series 3 with a salsbury axle on the rear my prop lenghts are 605mm Front and 485m Rear. The car was a gift and needs serious work. With these prop shaft lenghts are my gearbox mounts in the correct position? Havnt recieved the box yet and may be a few months before I do and want to get the chassis sorted. Done the rest just the cab bit to do. Also could someone please measure there landy for the engine mounts from front crossmember and height from top of chassis. I will be putting a 2 1/4 petrol in the car. Thanks Ian Quote
Bowie69 Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 The Salisbury axle will eman your rear prop will be shorter, but I can't tell you by how much atm! I am sure someone has done this before and can get a tape measure out Quote

iannotts Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 In the words of Dame Shirley Bassey: It's all just a little bit of history repeating See what you mean lol I am just hoping I don't have to start hacking at the gearbox mounts. That would be a bit of a set back I know the engine mounts need moving as they ae on top of the front offside tyre at the moment ready for welding on Quote
