"Bolt In" Axles like a Pontiac or Ford has will keep the rear tire from trying to escape and tearing up your rear quarter sheet metal at the minimum or causing a bad crash at the maximum. The Moser Axles are extremely hard to cut on a lathe but I wanted the minimum heat going into the axles so a slow lubricated cutting bit was used. Took forever but I learned how tough the steel and heat-treat/temper process was on the axles. No AD for Moser, just the truth.
I have seen a lot of factory chevy axles shafts over the years (more than 10) with the tire and wheel/axle protruding out of the vehicle. Brakes don't work good on that side when the drum for the shoes is 12" away. That being said, 10 out of millions built, maybe a low number, but I was the only one counting too. If I see something happen 3 times, the deal is trying to tell me something. Question is: AM I WILLING TO LISTEN? Tom V.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
