From the date, - this has been there for a long time, - but if you haevn't gotten information let me know! I can probably find a "blow-up" of parts assemblys from one of my old "Motors Manuals" of that era!

I assume that you kow that this is drivetrain out of English Austin A-55 car,--- Searching "G.B. Ebay" may find you some of the harder to find parts over there, - and probably cheaper too!

Now the diferential and rear axle assembly is farily simple, and it isn't much more than removing bolts etc. to take apart!-- The problem of reassembling is getting spacers and and the like, as well as gear preload/lash settings right! It is fairly simple too (observe as you take apart)!-- But I always like to have these specifications, just to make sure it is exactly right! Working - and "howling like a banshee" can sometimes come together!! -- If spacing and preloads aren't "on the money"! And as simple as they are, and as easy as they are to take apart,-- I do not enjoy taking out and disassembling many times to get things right!!
