hi all just joined here.
swift kontike 640 came back from I.O.M other week did I bounce it of the ferry, who knows???
anyway set of on 300 mile trip and noticed nearside was low at back, very worrying but still drives fine, have jacked up, all swings free, so reckon its broke as have many others it seems, and all people seem to be struggling and talking big money£££££ why can it not be converted to air suspension if alko axle is rubbish! and they don't want to know it seems.

Ah further to this firm will sell me air suspension but it wont work till I fix the torsion bar it seems

More news
Ok set of with my sagging shed was ok on motorway after 200 miles I came of motorway hit a pot hole big crack wheel and swinging arm came out of round bit of axle till it hit body work, what a devil to get it on a tow truck!

back home now if the weather is fine I will pull axle off and see how this silly thing works, if it helps I will put pictures of innards on here, any feedback would be appreciated. also any known scrap yards etc for replacements.
