Well Ross I would try to go with the model A for your car. The Austin is pretty narrow and Ford added a few inches to the width of the axles in 41 unless its a 41 pickup axle. You would have to get spindles from a 40 to 48 Ford to put on the Model A axle. These spindles had hydraulic brakes but They aren't a very modern setup. There are a lot of kits available for disc brakes for the these Ford spindles. The morris minor axle might be the best fit but you might have problems upgrading the brakes.
If you can find an old Econoline axle (61-67) They are kinda narrow and the brakes should be good enough for a lightweight car like your's.Last edited by The Al Show; 03-06-2004 at 09:48 PM.
