Does anyone know the difference in inches between standard
series axles and gayer's axles? :gay:
Thanks!

Looks to be four inches or so for each wheel?
I didn't know Debender axles could ever go under a series due to
the steering issues??

thanks Mistericeman, I do wonder how the steering was worked
out though!!
Anyone got any solutions to getting to a 6ft 2 in track width
(bender axles with 130 rims) under a series (obviously sticks
outside arches seriously badly :bleurgh) just trying to work out
if it's possible.
Edit: Whilst using a stock series axle...!

I'm pretty sure It's not possible without using awful offset
modular wheels. YUCK

Zeb is on a "designa" chassis and runs on the devils springs as
well as the devils axles :eek:

Well you did ask .....Bought it like that and as soon as the
galvy chassis has rusted out I'll replace it with the correct
chassis ;D

A GAY axle is 6" wider than a Series axle. A 101" axle is 2 1/2"
wider than a Gay axle.
