Is this a Salisbury axle? I haven't claimed it to be one but someone has offered me £100 for the axle, radius arms, springs, A frame, upper mounts, everything in the photo, is this fair or should I ask for more?

That diff casing looks very Salisbury to me. That's a dead giveaway. Check out what they're currently going for on Ebay - my recollection is that they're usually a bit more than £100

That is a Salisbury, the "A" frame bracket on the axle cost a fortune on it's own. Whats it worth, I suppose it depends on condition but I would happily pay £100 if I wanted one.

Drum braked they're not worth a lot

Have picked them up from £1 to £40

Like owl says tho the a frame bracket is worth the money and it would have to be in excellent condition for me to think about paying any more than £50.

Just my opinion but unless they are disc braked or have lockers nobody wants them.

Depends what type of disc it is if it has the brackets for the calipers that bolt on rarther than the later welded type and the diff is fubar id be tempted to buy and use for parts from you.

Although now red winches sell the brackets for £45 a pair with fitting kit it makes what was once a pain and expensive exercise quite cheap although sketchy for road use
