Very true on the parts. I finally after months of looking, begging an pleading have got enough parts to finish mine and have some spares. Due to the scarcity of aftermarket parts these will likely be my last ones. Shame because i read such great things about them
My Twin Force Axles
These axles seem to be gaining in popularity again and with the wealth of knowledge albeit outdated, it helped me a ton in building mine. The Driveshaft’s in CVD or Universal form are the hardest part about deciding to use these axles. One thing I hate when trying to do a mod or research info is the lack of Part Numbers or links to info. If you are going to build these axles you will more than likely be doing some research on you own. I know I did and was confused at the beginning with what worked and what didn’t. While my list is not extensive, it will help some I am sure. I don’t know it all and I am not a Twin Force Axle guru but I have lots of PN’s on items that did and did not work and links to them so if you are in need of anything just ask. This Hobby is all about sharing knowledge so ask away.
