• 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*
  • 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*
    • The Parts Box does drop axles reinforced with wire. *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*
