Am i right in thinking the 19 16v has the same rear axle?

19 16v axle is wider , which means you will have to cut the arches or
stick with bike tires at the rear :laugh:

Is that the same for all the 19 range?

What im really trying to find out is, i want to replace mine as its knackered and finding an 11 in a scrapyard is like finding a rainbow at night.

The whole back end of the car is sitting about 2 inches lower than it used to be.
I replaced the shocks but that made no difference.

they wouldn't.

If it's lowered itself the torsion bars will have sagged. I suppose that's possible, but it's also possible that the floor is rotten where the axle bolts on, and has collapsed. Have a good look at the mountings, bars etc.
