Mixing rear axles 120-130

It's not worth going that route in my opinion. Basically to fit another axle on the 220 you need to chop off the mountings and weld ones on that match the wagon rear suspension. At which point you might as well use the axle from a 240 because they're more plentiful and the handbrake works. Besides which someone with a late 120 saloon will pay sensible money for the 1800E axle because it's a straight bolt on.

There was a guy in Denmark making the brackets to convert a 240 axle into a 220 axle.

Regards


Pete
