Mark Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Hi Boys A quick picture off my phone and the question is: Is this a banjo axle or the other type ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Excuse my ignorance and thanks for the quick reply but what is the difference and which is better and easier to get parts for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Excuse my ignorance and thanks for the quick reply but what is the difference and which is better and easier to get parts for? I can only answer the latter - yes there are easy to get hold as Rex deals mainly with Banjo for the DUKWS. Splits are a nightmare to get hold off - believe me! It is said that the Banjo is a tougher axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Degsy Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 The split axle and transfer box is technically superior to the banjo design but the axle is weaker as it was liable to snap in half due to overloading,however this is not a problem with todays usage. As Jack says banjo parts are easier to get but well maintained split axles don't usually give too many problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
