Never realised or read ur original post correctly if a 110.
Id find a sailsbury or repair the original.
Read a few threads in the past and noone reccomends fitting a disco rear axle. Not ament to be strong enough. Doing it to a 90 seems fine lots of those been done inc myne.
Would be failry cheap aslong as your axle casing is still in good condition and worth repairing?.
If the axles knackered there were a few 110,s sitting in the scrappy in Loanhead last time a checked.

Hi Bill,
        If your using it off road, towing and generally working your 110 I would save your money getting a prop done and stick with the salisbury. It's a much stronger unit all round and if you really want find a disc brake 110 salisbury to change to later on.
 Stick the disco axle on the 90, that only costs time.

cheers,
          Stevie.

Have you replaced the Disco axle spring seating to take the bigger One Tens springs?

Malcolm and the landy scrappy did have a 110 rolling chassis. Maybe contact him for the axle.
