If you check out the ORC and search for wild weasel you can see he has done a swap with Toy axles and kept it coil in front very nice setup to.

Having wheeled several times with Wildweasel, his 'track is something to behold. Fantastic machine! Is going to 35's for this year and some other tweaks.

Toy axles will take 38's without a problem anything over you should look at replacing the birfs with longs.

 I don't see 35s being a problem, I have this axle under my lwb sammy with 35s. One of the weakest links in a zuk axle is the small diff with low gears. Well, in this version, that part is taken care of.
With the locked version with Longfields, 35s or 36s won't be a problem. If it needs to be stronger yet, I can figure that part out.

 I have another recent developement that might pique people's interest. I was talking to a new buddy of mine, a Guy by the name of George. He said that he will make me a NEW Birfield design that will be 26 spline all the way through! At the hub, inside the birf, and at the diff. I also talked to Figmo at Roadless Gear about selling these items. These will have a lifetime guarantee, you break it, send it back, you get a new one....FREE! These are not a revamped version from a car that is only marginally strongeer than the stock stuff, these are new!
The problem we seem to be having so far is, Figmo doesn't know what kind of market there might be for them. The anticipated price of these birfs with shafts is going to be anywhere from $500-650 for both sides.
Does that sound like something reasonable that you guys might like to use? If so, let me know on this post, I want to see some serious replies with interest.
