Stub axle for fabricated upright?

Hey Up,

I'm just playing with some stuff on the computer on a fabricated upright.

Can anyone sugest a suitable stub axle which is seperate from the original upright and capable of being bolted into a fabricated upright?

Thanks in advance

Chris

fiestas, corsas, golfs, polos, etc all use bolt on rear stub axles.

what type of car is it? If a 226x10mm brake disc is big enough i would use a golf stub axle and rear disc/hub, no need to find a hub then.

Chris,
Randall Motorsport do a threaded or a weldable stub axle.

Try a search for them.

just about to suggest randall's stub axles, go for them and you can use all the std cortina bits on them.

Thanks chaps!

It's for a single seater, front upright.

Idealy it would use a hub with a PCD to match the BMW 3 series rear axle (108mm?)

I'll check the ones suggested and let you know.

cheers

Chris
