Need a set of 930 Stub Axles
Playing with the Trippy Twin Turbo on the street the other day and broke a stub axle. I'm glad this happened on the street and not at 175 on the back straight at Road Atlanta! I am going to replace the stub axles and bearings on both rear wheels (the outer stubs at the swing arm).
Thanks, Cleve 404-226-9766 |

Any idea what caused it?

The car has an extremely wide track and the bearings are under a lot of stress and need to be checked frequently. I just took delivery of the car and I did notice that the passenger side rear wheel had some play in it and freshening the bearings was on the list to do before tracking it. I think the looseness may have allowed the bearings and stub axle to get into a bind and break...of course the full throttle launch and quick shift to second may have contributed also.

Some of mine have a very wide track and plenty of HP and I have never broken one...I do carry an extra when I go to the track along with a host of other spares but have never had to replace one. Have you taken the suspension apart and serviced it or crack checked the components ? If that car has been raced quite a bit you may want to check those items specially if you already took out a axle stub .May be some hours on those parts . Always good to play it safe
