Australian Drop spindles? Anyone want a set?
Got am update from the guy over in Australia Guess the price went up too.
Pasted from my email
Hi John,
I have made some enquiries for you about your Plymouth Scamp. Apparently
there is only one difference between your model and the Australian Valiant
and that is that the top balljoint in yours is bigger. This means our
stubs will fit by doing one of three things after you get the axles.
1. Fit an Australian Valiant top wishbone.
2. Ream the top balljoint taper in our axles to suit the larger balljoint
in your wishbone.
3. The guy I spoke with who has done this swap has a tapered reamer and a
depth gauge and could do the reaming (the price would depend on the amount
being done).
The cost of the axles is $A637.00 a pair, they are quite expensive but
products made in this country have to be of a much higher standard than in
the States where almost anything goes and they can fit up Chinese made cast
iron stubs and no-one worries or checks, ours are unbreakable, heat treated
4140 cast in the lost wax process for a perfect product. If you want a
quantity of these axles let me know numbers and I will endeavour to get a
price for reaming, I would also need an address here in Australia to get you
a shipping quote, alternatively you could get them reamed at your end, let
me know what you think.
Regards Rod
