1809572 is certainly the correct rear axle for a 1542X3, and it is also correct for 1531X8 and 1541X8.

That’s some very useful info Colin, thank you for posting. Little by little the puzzle pieces fit together!

Cheers,

Dave ,
That would be great, I can't find anything about them anywhere. I've got period photos that confirm the rough shape, but no details of how they look at the chassis end or what format/shape/design they are where they connect to the bumper. I imagine there's a front plate on the bracket, but how wide, what support/bracing it has, how many holes, are all unknown. Likewise the support rod system, and how that attaches to the bracket, the size and shape of the holes in the panel below the grill, (or maybe in the fenders), and whether the support rods are straight or angle into the mounting brackets.
Thanks for your help!
