These axles and wheels are fitted to my 1987 110 (the one in projects...up for restoration).

The front axle serial number is elusive and I cannot find it but could do with an ID:

Any clues there?

Next, the rear axle. This is fitted with discs, which as I understand it, were not fitted until later. Again, any ID most welcome:

Finally, the previous owner muttered something about "Wolf wheels". I have no idea here...so again any ID welcomed:

And I did find the source of a transmission clunk. Predictably the rear UJ is...beyond its end of life.

Rear is a Salisbury so that's good.
id is on the top axle tube if I recall but it's been a while and it's hard to see without wire brushing the cack off.

Agreed, the front id will be on the near side front near the top iirc stamped in & wire wheel n drill to clean the rust off.

Wolf wheels, or officially heavy duty rims. Fitted to military wolf defenders hence the name.

Front axle is probably standard and original unless there was call for it to be changed. All the front axles look mostly the same and relatively few changes over the years.

Didn't the width of the hockey sticks change at a certain year? Also swivel bearings went from Bush to bearing, both front axle related.

I'm picking up the mood music on this...I did think it looked not unlike a 101 at the diff housing.

If the axles were put on at the same time that’s from a late 300tdi 110.

Have you a photo of the front arms to chassis ?
This will confirm not a later model
