Cheers mate.
I have the same axle in my car with drum brakes fitted and have been informed by everybody that it is incredibly heavy in comparison to the forward
loading escort english affair. For info, i weighed an eglish at the weekend from a mk2 escort 1600 and it was around 50kg including brakes. There you
go.....
