Have you came up with a price yet for just the adapters And seal?

Not yet, I am machining a few sets next week and once machine time is determined,,,, I can put a cost to them. I do however expect the pricing to be similar as the "weld-on" kits I sell since they are very similar, and as you may or may not know those are $900.00 a set.
Additionally, the basic kit for this "bolt-on" setup will include the axle seal and ARP hardware. Appreciate your interest! Thanks!!

I do not think any questions are stupid and believe that is how we all learn. To answer your question, a conventional rear with "torino ends" IS considered a semi-floater. This set-up would fall closer into the full floater category.
In a nutshell, with a semi-float axle, the axle shaft both carries the weight of the vehicle and transmits torque which directly relates to the failure of bearings, seals, and ultimately piston knockback.
With a full-float axle, the weight of vehicle is supported by the axle housing-more specifically and in this situation, the C6/7 Hub/Bearing that is attached/bolted to the end of the axle tube. Torque is now transmitted by the axle shaft that carries literally no weight since the Hub/Bearing Unit supports the vehicles weight now...

That implies that you actually went into a corner hard enough to move the rotor and push the pads back..... Just sayin'.... Hahahahahahahaha

Great idea! So simple, but you are the first. Brilliant really, for the person making the upgrade with additional room or before they order wheels.

Does the weld-on kit for $900 include axles and the unit bearing? Gotta link to your website somewhere? There are no details in your signature or your user profile. I looked through your posts and saw a bunch of GMR stuff but when I called GMR they said you don't work for them.

The axles & hub/bearing units are not included. Check out my other thread for more info. https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=48782

All info on these products will be on Lat-G. Please feel free to PM me or simply ask here on this thread, (or my other thread if it is related to the "weld-on" version) and I would be more than happy to answer.

I have not worked with the GMR for years....

Thanks Payton! Now what do I owe ya for saying that :lol:

Need Help
 
I was hoping to be posting pictures by now of finished machined parts but in my tireless efforts :confused59: to make this part PERFECT the first time, I have delayed and need some help from the members here on Lat-G.

What I am looking for are some pictures of your current Big Ford Ends, but please note I am ONLY needing pics of "New Style" aka "Torino Ends". What I need pictures of specifically, are pics from the backside of the End (the side the T-bolt/bolt enters from. If you also would not mind at time of posting, I would like to know what "brand/who made it" if you know, but not necessary.

Hopefully you all can give me a quick hand with this :) It would be greatly appreciated!

Jay
