I am really interested in this, can the axles be done in 30 spline for my eaton locker?

Hi
This kit use the corvette hub and bearings. I wonder how much weight this bearing/ hub can withstand, with corvette wheel offset.
I am looking for a setup for a street car, but it is a lot heavier then the Corvette. So how much axel weight is it safe to run on this axel / hub combination? |

I have no way of answering this with any kind of scientific data, but what I can tell you, is a very talented group of current, and ex GM engineers have these same hub units installed on cars (front & back) such as a 69 Dodge Charger that is fully loaded with late model hemi, whipple super charger, auto trans, roll cage, full interior, big wheels/tires/brakes, etc.. Also 70 Chevelle, 1st gen Camaros, and all with similar weight adding components. So if these guys are confident outfitting these heavy weight cars that are purpose built to be tracked, I feel comfortable giving the same endorsement on similar weighted cars. So what is the car you are wanting to run this on, and how much does it weigh? |
My car is a 1995 Chevrolet caprice / impala clone with ls3 and supercharger.
I have kor3 corvette zo6 brakes up front and still have the stock rear brakes. The rear end is 8.5 C-clip with the abs sensor on the pinion, and the worst 3 channel abs system ever made. What I want is a system that eliminates the C-clip, and has the provision for ABS sensors on both wheels. I live in Norway and I would need some kind of documentation to prove that the setup can hold the vehicle weight. Usually when I change a rear end to a different type I use the weight spec from the donor vehicle to prove that the axle is strong enough. With the corvette parts I think this could be a problem. The total weight on the rear end of the car is 1213kg or 2674lb Regards Tor |

I am not certain, and not sure how adaptable your ABS system is, but you may be able to suffice load ratings by running Camaro/Cadillac CTS-V Hub part#'s. I am almost positive they are identical dimensions as Vette but easy to prove ratings on these 4000+lb cars. I am not saying to even rule out the C6/7 hub part #'s either as if you could find specifications on them they are probably even rated for your weight loads??? I did a quick search and did not find anything but perhaps someone on this site can help if they know. Jay |
Just in case anyone is wondering,,,, I will have sets ready to ship by mid next week! (just waiting for Hub Spacers to come back from anodize shop)

the bolt on version adds .250 to each side. |
Sorry was a little tired when I wrote that,I'm referring to the welded on version. I've got a stock 12 bolt
