Trying to work out my budget for the next set of mods.

Can anyone who's had their axle narrowed give me an idea of cost?

1. Strange 35 spline S/S axles (8. ¾) £250

2. Strange Wheel bearings - pr £64

3. Strange Studs - set £17

4. Mark Williams H/D 8 ¾ caps £185

5. Machine work on fitting caps - approx £100

6. Strange Spool £157

7. Spool Bearings - pr £30

8. Pinion Seal £7 & Crush Washer £8.50

9. Narrow & back brace casing £170

10. Fit spool & set up gears £120

Is that Jem "Nah, I'm not going to race it" Warner asking about narrowed rear axles?

Blue, you're a bad man

That's exactly what I was thinking Rob, this means he has to tub the car...then Blue will pipe in and say, "Jem, do you know this thing weighs nearly 4000lbs?".

...and by then, it's too late!

So, by Nicks handy ready reckoner, you're looking at £555 for a narrowed and braced case with race axles.....

Need to get the thing on the scales, but I don't think it's excessively porky......

Dont forget all prices are plus VAT .

Yep, it's all Blue's fault - he's a bad, bad influence.

Thanks for the breakdown Nick.

My gears whine like a banshee so I guess I'll need to take replacing those into account, but then again I won't need a spool so probably will work out the same?

Just totted up Nicks figures Blue and I make it over £1k. Am I missing something?

I can't believe what I am reading here!

Same here, according to me it adds up to:

Sub Total £1101.50
Vat @17.5% £192.76
Total £ 1,294.26

n i just sold the complete rear clip inc narrowed axle etc for a little more than that,

What kind of times do you think you going run ? Big Dog ran 11.2 with a iron head 440 and my mate in the states runs 10.4 with a 440 with stage 6 heads, both cars have a moser 8 3/4, S/S springs, with a 10.5 tyre so if you cant run faster that I shouldn't bother.

Bundle of fun you are Slick.

Hey Adam, narrowing the axel is the cheap bit at a ball park figure of £1300 you then need spring relocation, 4 link, or ladder bar, tubs, wheels, tyres, ect..............
