My mate in Worthing has a pair of samurai SPOA axles.
He says it would have to be a good offer for them not a cheapo one ;)

Im finding out roughly how much he wants for em

Right, bit more info

He does indeed have spoa samurai axles. But he wants a fair bit of money for them (£250+) as its a proper SPOA kit (laser cut) not a homemade job
However, they won't fit on a 413 unless you cut the spring perches off and reweld them in the correct place for your 413 springs
He DOES have one 413 diff... but he isn't sure which one it is (in his diff collection), or if its front or rear.
Going to try to get over there after work and find out for you

how come the spring perches will need to be moved? are the chassis on both 413 and samurai not the same??

No they are not unfortunately
The samurai has slightly outboard spring mounts... if you look at the front of yours, you will see that the 410/413 spring mounts are directly in line with the chassis rails.
The put them a bit further out on the samurai to gain a bit more stability on the road

I have some spoa 413 axle cases that i would just swap for some standard cases, i'm quite a drive from you though and it''s literally just the bare axle cases.

so i would have to move the attachment points on the chassis or the axles?

You can't really move the mounts on the chassis, you would have to chop the mounts off the axle and reweld them on in the correct place
