the average single piece in good order goes for around £45 + £10 delivery, but as I said save a little bit more and get a new with warranty for £100 from R.A.C.E

A salisbury axle is the reference used for the atlas type axle, this is usually available in the 'baby' width or the wide version used on the capri's (52")
The english axle is also referred to as the Timken axle.

The main difference between the two is on the english variety the diff gears are removable in one unit (from the front of the casing), whereas the atlas type is built into the main casing (from the rear).
