I was cleaning out my parts shelf last night and came across a brand new set of stub axles that I purchased from Pelican a few years back. These were the ones where you can use late model CV's I believe and are mounted in the trailing arms.
Does anyone know anything about these things? I honestly cannot remember why I bought them as The Beast already has axles and such. But I did and I have a brand new set. I'm going to fire sale them out, but I want to provide information for the new owner. The ultimate brain fade.....

Hi Jeroen,
I looked on the stub axles and there is no stamping on them with a p/n. I also looked on Pelican's site and could not find them. Maybe Dave D. remembers the particulars on these axles.... Bill P. |

I'm interested in them as soon as you find out a little more about the CV joint to use.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) So I must have bought them so I wouldn't have to either drill out the -4 hubs or buy the Rich Johnson hubs. Hmmm....I DID buy Rich's hubs for the 914-6 race car....I wonder why I kept these...must have been for the street V8 project I always wanted to do....but I bought JLO, which already had the 5 lug conversion. Anyone else forget things? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I worry myself sometimes.... Bill P. |

How did you fit them in 5 lug hubs? Are they special stub axles? I was hoping my 911 & 930 CV/axles would bolt up to them. Fortunately I have 5 lug hubs in trailing arms that I bought for the V8 car. Memory fade is a common occurance but then I have limited capacity in there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

I bought them through Brad in 2003 if my fading memory serves me..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I think Rich Johnson still makes them. Bill P. |

Bill,
Rich tells me he doesn't build axles only 5x130 hub conversions. I wouldn't think you would run redrilled hubs on the race car? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
