Just broke my left rear axle shaft on my 47 sedan. I don't find one for a 47 on line but found this one from a 41 on line. Will it work OK?

I probably have NOS axle shafts or super nice used.
Interested? Or, are you thinking of replacing the entire rear assembly?

Get a NOS axle from Fred Wilner or Kube and know for sure that you're dealing with the correct part in good condition.

Which mountain were you climbing to break an axle ? Gotta be more to the story professor !
 
Craig,

Take up Kube or Fred's nos axle offer. It's a pretty straigt forward repair. Albiet, laborious.

It might be worth installing a new axle seal while your that far into the job.

I'm betting the fracture that eventually failed that axle started long before that stop sign a mile from your home. ;)

I’ve been having some pretty bad clutch chatter that may have contributed to it. Wish that was as easy to fix as replacing the broken axle.
 
Old Henry, neither is an "easy" fix (depends on your pointof view. I believe you going to have to pull and open the rear end to change the axle. Pull the transmission and get the clutch, flywheel and pressure plate while your in that deep. Just my thoughts. LouB
