Unless its used with the metal axle its quite weak & prone to break, at least the one from the Vicki is.....I'd think a resin one would be similarly fragile.....lol. *NM*

Anyone know of a resin caster repopping the drop axle found in the AMT 32 Ford? Like the Vicky? *NM*
.....or have one they'd part with? *NM*

I see they do have a mild drop with an I beam, might be just the ticket, thanks for the post. *NM*
Got a picture? *NM*
No pics but a link *NM* *LINK*
Great link, but which of these is it? I like the idea of wire reinforcement *NM*
I held my computer thing(tech talk here) over each axle pic & red words saying the axle was reinforced with wire appeared in the pic...lol. *NM*
If I were casting such an axle, the '32 piece would be pretty far down the list; it ain't that good *NM*
Yeah, I think you guys are right, It might be closer to a 6 or even 8 scale inch drop, which is far more than I need. I think i'll just take the drop out of the spring and perch and use the stock axle. The 29 used the I beam anyway, and I want to keep it close to stock.
Shoulda gone to the Drastic Plastic site in the first place... saw the big drop axle in the instruction sheet, thanks to all who commented *NM*
