Mike D.
Good to hear that you are inquiring about the GT6 axles.
This is one of the main development points of any significant GT6.=20
Perhaps the most important.
I=E2=80=99d stay away from anything with even the slightest whiff of a swing=
 axle design.
Consider engineering designs for much more powerful cars.
 Smart custom engineering is required.=20
Options often  Include parts from:
-Datsun 240-280 style as proven by Steve Smith.=20
-TR6=E2=80=99s=20
-Corvair=20
-Corvette
-Custom made.
People that follow wisdom on this topic, end up with great cars.

Several of the best GT6=E2=80=99s ever built will be available for viewing a=
t Road America this summer at the Kastner Cup.=20
You likely won=E2=80=99t find all the answers to this query in a simple inte=
rnet thread.=20
However, most, if not all of your questions can be answered by studying some=
 very successful examples that will be kicking ass on track. The actively ra=
cing GT6 guys are doing some cool stuff and will be available to lead you in=
 the right direction.=20

Somewhat on topic and related to Corvair hubs.

I have a set of Corvair hubs developed by Marty Sukey for TYR4A thru TR6 =
along with axles custom made by GoodParts; again for TR4A thru TR6. =
Trailing arms need modified but can be made to work well.

Pricing would be very reasonable to FOT if interested.

to answer Mike=E2=80=99s earlier question, I recall, maybe 5-6 years =
ago, seeing Jim Dolan at Summit Point in the carousel in either the =
Group 44 GT6 or the Kastner GT6, and one of his rear wheels going past =
him.  I think he had five laps on the Rimmer or Canley assembly and the =
hub sheared off.  Fortunately a low speed part of the track.  Not sure =
if that was a one-off, and he subsequently went on to run them without =
trouble.  Perhaps the Dolans can chime in as to what they run on their =
numerous GT6s and what this failure was.

Amici,

=20

The question is which model GT6 you have, Mk1 and MK3 cars have swing =
axles and the GT6+ has fully articulated axles.  The axles shown in the =
pics posted are for early and late cars..   Might suggest looking at the =
CV conversion axles being offered by Canley Classics in England for the =
GT6+??  I myself have been running axles made by Snyder Racing & =
Machine, Michigan ( since have closed their doors ).

=20

My 2 cents,

answer Mike=E2=80=99s earlier question, I recall, maybe 5-6 years ago, =
seeing Jim Dolan at Summit Point in the carousel in either the Group 44 =
GT6 or the Kastner GT6, and one of his rear wheels going past him.&nbsp; =
I think he had five laps on the Rimmer or Canley assembly and the hub =
sheared off.&nbsp; Fortunately a low speed part of the track.&nbsp; Not =
sure if that was a one-off, and he subsequently went on to run them =
without trouble.&nbsp; Perhaps the Dolans can chime in as to what they =
run on their numerous GT6s and what this failure =
was.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p =
