MG MGA - Banjo axle.

What is it and how do I tell if my car has it?
H L Davy

It's a standard MGA axle.

It is also the type of axle fitted to mgb roadsters up to 1967.

Almost.

All MGB GTs had the late style axle, even before 1967.
Bill Spohn

But the GT isn't a roadster! ;)

The 'banjo' part is referring to the shape of the diff. housing, the diff centre is often called a 'pumpkin' What variety of pumpkin I know not.
