Hi all. I’m after the highest ratio for a koln axle. I thought it was an atlas till I saw the bolt pattern. It’s for my hotrod it has tall rear tyres and the ratio is around 3.5  at moment. Really need to get the highest gears for the axle. I’ve got 4.11 coming but really need to get near the 5 mark. Does anyone know if there’s anybody that makes cwp for the koln axle. 
cheers dave

Some (mk3-4-5 ) 1.3 cortinas & 1.6 automatic ests were avl with 4.44 :1.

These are pretty weak axles so there's never been any interest in the aftermarket world.

Thanks for reply. The rods engine is mgbgt 18 and box so not a power monster just my tall tyres under gearing it. I’ll going keep a look out for an atlas but for now see if can get the highest cwp for this axle. I’ll try the 4.11 but really think need more. 😥

Should be fine they'll cope with a std 2.0 ohc which is a similarly rated eng.

Trouble is the 4:44 was never that come  or wanted so not saved .

Don't think I've ever had/sold one, everyone wants the 3.44 to use with V6 swaps.

The annual cortina show is on at Monmouth this sun I'll ask around you never know.
