Assuming yours doesn't have the narrow springs then springs and axles are interchangeable, though later axles are about 4" wider.

Springs are certainly narrower than on my S3 - but are in top condition, the story of it has unravelled a bit more today. Apparently a bloke had started to restore it but unfortunately died so it ended up in a field with a lot of other Landrovers. The 'Boss's' friend wanted the S3 for restoration that was wedged in behind the S1 so he took them both and gave the S1 to the boss, been invited back up to the field to search for other bits that might be lurking round for the S1 with the possibility of a bulkhead :D

matthew:
Why would anybody choose a S3 to restore in preferrence to a S1?

Your guess is a good as mine - S3 is virtually all there - a lot less work
