This is the outer hub/bearing assembly on the Strange axle. Traditional C-clip eliminator kits use a ball bearing setup with the seal built in. As it is low-friction, it is great for drag racing but doesn't handle side loads well, and can pop the seal out and leak. JC at Strange gave me the lowdown on their bearing setup, which utilizes a tapered unit bearing (cone-type roller), and handles the side loads better in street/road race/oval track use, as well as drag racing. The seals actually press into the aluminum halves, so don't see the side load, and are less prone to leak. I'll let you know how they do. View Related Article
