im wondering if any of you straight axle guys are driving the car on the street at all? how does it hold up. i was thinking about getting the kens kustom rear axle setup but my car will be driven to and from the track so i would like some good feedback on it.

 

I'm 100% sure that's not a bright idea lol

 

How far do you live from the track ?

Like Joe Simpson, you can throw a stone and hit it ?

 

i'm guessing by sraight axle, the back wheels are locked as one? what is the reason for doing this?

 

The kits that are made are bolt in units that shed a good amount of weight. And yes it's a solid rear as opposed to independant like the cars are from the factory.

 

thanks rota

 

they still roll independently from each other. the only down fall i see is that you are rolling on 3.5-4" wide rear tires, and light weight rims not designed to see pot holes or other road hazards. hadling will be very different from a normal car. all in all I feel its a bad idea
