Reply With Quoteyeah thats cool. all im saying is, if you are going to shorten and taper. do the taper first. cos if you shorten it first you wont have the centre (the hole) in the end of the axle to put in the lathe

A lathe for the taper - Thats far to high tech. I used the linishing belt on a bench grinder. Lets face it the taper is only to help the axel entry into the centre.

yeah ok, i'll take ur experience over my books any day
just make sure there is a radius in there somewhere
EDIT: go easy with the bench grinder they generate a lot of heat and arnt axles heat treated?

Thanks for the input guys, one last thing before putting this to bed.
My axles don't have the 67mm locating collar for the wheels, is this going to be a problem & have any of you had problems Engineering your cars?

SillyCarS,
The linishing belt takes all of 5 or 6 seconds an axel.A sound wrist movement is all it takes.
