Who else can supply a DeDion kit.

Is there anyone other than Darren or 3GE components who can supply a DeDion axle for my McSorley+4.

I've no experience of dealing with Darren but do worry about all the bad publicity he seems to get although it may be unfair.

I did get in touch with 3GE who were going to see if they still had any parts available but that was a couple of month ago and although I have now sent 3 e-mails to follow it up I don't get any replys at all.

I don't actually need the axle yet (probably not before the spring now) but do want to sort out how much it will cost and where from.

John.

i bought mine from Darren at Exeter about 3 years ago. Admittedly i was able to pay there and then and carry it away with me. Does he even still go to the shows?

I can't imagine Darren going out without a flak jacket on these days.

Sorry i can only think of asking Martin keenan at MK Engineering if he would be able to knock one up.

I have one GTS trailing arm available if you want something to copy to make the other three.

I've just received a full De Dion from Darren no problems - So I can help if you need some dimensions.

Instead of emailing 3ge try calling them.

I got mine from him, took a while as i wanted stuff non standard but the qualit and price was excellent.
