[Fot] Ford Truck Axles

Doug Brown specified Vasco Jet 1000 for the Spitfire axles that were made when he worked for Kas.  When Kas quit Triumph Lee Mueller had some axles made but I don’t know what material he used.  These were all bespoke axles. 
For the complete history on Spitfire axles talk to Jerry Barker.
