Default Building a Full Floater 9" axle with negative camber

Hey all, looking at building a new rear axle for my road race car.

Doing a 9" with full floating axles. I have heard about methods of using special axle shafts for be able to get negative camber.

Anybody have any recommendations? I bought a blank axle and was going to weld the full floater ends on it. Since I'm going through the trouble of doing that, dialing in some negative camber would be pretty slick!

There are special snouts and crowned axles that are needed to make it work. Some circle track suppliers have them. eBay is a good place for takeoffs but you need to be careful to get exactly the right snouts and hubs and axles and drive flanges. Easy way is to just order one from winters or speedway engineering.

You can get weld-on or bolt-on cambered snouts in different degrees. Then you just need cambered drive plates.
