The following information was compiled between 1988-1992 during the restoration of my 65 Morgan. It is presented here as a tool or a starting point for anyone looking for parts. There is NO garentee that the information is correct, only my best effort. So use at your own risk.

Victoria British was bought out by Moss Motors so I deleted items available from Victoria British

Old World Restorations - Penny Bates - has gone out of business so I've deleted their items

Rear end

* Salsibury 3HA, 6HA, 7HA the 4.1:1 ring and pinion set for the 3HA is identical to the 1959 Studebaker Lark and 6 cylinder Champion. Parts are available through Newmann Altman. Morgans were known to use Hypoid gears Chris Towner Morgan now uses BTR an Australian Co. The backing plates and drums were Morgan only. Richard Edwards Salisbury is the manufacturer's name. They are/were based in Tyburn Birmingham. They are now part of GKN Transmission Services. Stephen Weston says: I believe Morgans of New England have created a new Dana replacement back axle assembly for +4 and 4/4. The small vent hole is on the Right Hand side (looking from the rear of the car) about 4" from the banjo horizontal to the floor. Castrol Axle EPX 80w-90 (API GL-5 performance) is good for high load protection. Anthony Quinn I have a TR4 axle complete in my 61 +4, same ratio 3.73:1 Duncan Charlton My Series V 4/4 has what looks like a TR axle (6 bolts instead of four through each backing plate). I assumed it was a TR3 axle, given its width from backing plate to backing plate. Others said that had TR3 rear ends in their +4s

* It take 1.7 pints (1L) of 80W-90 from Ken Hill's Completrly Morgan from 1968
