Thanks

Trey was kind enough to PM me what he's learned so I thought I would share it with everyone.

Strange has a new kit that they are saying is specifically for street applications that uses tapered bearings. Just thought I'd pass the info on since you said someone mentioned the kit was designed to go around corners.

here is the info and thank you Trey
STRANGE C-CLIP ELIMINATOR FOR STREET APPLICATION
http://www.competitionplus.com/drag-...t-application-
Strange Engineering, Morton Grove Illinois, introduces a new style, specifically designed for street and/or strip, c-clip eliminator for most 10 & 12-bolt GM car rear ends equipped with c-clip style axles. In the past, c-clip eliminators for these applications have been designed for drag racing, which use ball bearings. Ball bearing c-clip kits are fine for drag racing, but are prone to leaking and premature failure when used for prolonged street use. Our specially designed c-clip eliminator kit (A1033) utilizes Timken unit (tapered) bearings, which survive severe side loads and constant use.
The Strange A1033 also features two seals per axle shaft, ensuring a completely sealed axle end. Complete axle and c-clip eliminator packages are also available.
