front axle concern
(1/1)
bad penny:
Bought this car as a roller.it did tag the wall and front section was replaced.Repair was done nice.looking at axle and noticed that the uprights the chrome has cracked/fractured.Im leaning on replacing the axle assembly.Is this the way to go or am I going overkill?
dreracecar:
Have the chrome stripped and then inspect the axle

Hey Roo, is this a service you can do for a fee?
I share the same concern. My car (173" FED) has a SPE front axle, but it does look a little sagged. It has signs in the middle point showing it has flexed enough to touch the asphalt a few times. It's a rigid front assembly, which further taxes the front axle. I just love the nostalgic look of the SPE front axle!
PS.: Bruce, nothing against you, but I'm one hour from Roo.
bad penny:
Will strip and inspect.If I have a bracket issue can I replace or will it take the strenght out of it?
