Jag 3.0 auto 1994-AK build

I have been offered the front and rear axles with the v5 for a good price. The car has the square headlights, so was thinking it might be an xj40, waas told to leave these alone. Is this suitable or is it not, and does anyone know what the diff ratio would be on it?

cheers

Paul

Paul. Yes it is an XJ40 So, At this moment in time it isn't any good. AK are looking to alter the chassis to accept XJ40 running gear, But that is in the future.

Might be some local Dax De-Dion builders interested.
Maybe you could stick an ad in the classified section.

Paul,

Have you tried these guys? - reasonably local (ish) when I was there thay had more axle sets than you could shake a very big stick at!

Cheers,

Simon.
