Buick Turbo Framerail Modification - Power Trip

If you plan to race your TR on sticky tires, upgrading the axles is of paramount importance. The stock axles are a 28-spline, which are decently strong, but unfortunately, they are a C-clip design. If they break during a hard launch they can pull out of the carrier and may separate from the car, sending you out of control. I plan to remedy this shortcoming with a set of Strange's C-clip eliminator axles. These are the best of both worlds: normally, Strange's Hy-Tuf axles are not recommended for street use since their through-hardening process (baking the axle to increase hardness, to 46-48 on the Rockwell scale), makes them torsionally strong for drag racing but not very flexible on the street. But because the diameter of the axle is increased for the tapered 1.773-inch (I.D.) C-clip bearing in these applications, they will handle street use with no problem. View Related Article
