Front axle is coming off next week to do diff and swivels, well actually I'm doing another axle up and swapping them over. I've a choice of colours for the axle and I want it to look nice so what dya think is best?

I've got maroon, cream, green, or black.
I rather fancy it's a toss up beween green and high gloss black as the 110 is green.
The 'new' springs are yellow by the way (Thanks Boydy) so that might influence the final choice.:scratching_chin:
 
yeller!!:behindsofa:
Springs are yeller, dunna want tamuch yeller cause I then I'd have to polish it an clean it after goin out in the rain an stuff.

I'm leaning towards dark green with maybe yeller diff gaurd or is that a bit military lookin:)
 
oh ffs just paint it with whatever colour paint you have handy

thats what Si did and is why he's got silver axles now

sorry i meant chrome .......
 
any ****in colour yer like long as it stops it rusting ffs talk aboot pointless torpics:p
I'm very concerned as to how it might look when I get amongst Land Rover people with it, want to look like I know what I'm doin dont I.

Might do it green with black hubs and silver diff gaurd:cool2: then I can park on Sainsury's car park with pride
 
gotta be black. any other colour is gonna look a bit gay i reckon. if you paint them cream or yellow how about painting flowers all over the bodywork wearing beads and bright coloured clothing and growing your hair down to your waist ? gloss black is the colour of an axle.
