One stop shop for the money
This is a quality setup for the money. I'm very happy with the fit and finish. Fastest way to get it on the road without having to look for quality original pieces.

Not the quality I'd expect from Speedway
Assembly delivered promptly and test fit on car. Problems started with steering arms. Originals couldn't be used, so I ordered your forged dropped arms. They wouldn't fit either. So I heated and bent them. Still no fit. I then had to build a fixture to stretch them! Finally upon closer inspection the weld quality on the wishbones is poor. I'll have to re-do some of them. Since I have enough shop equipment, I'll do it in house rather then send the whole mess back. If this was the average builder, It would be pretty disappointing.

I was at a car show this weekend and saw a front dropped I beam axel on a hot rod that appeared to be more heavy duty/thicker,heavier than other axels on cars around it like a truck axel. The guy who owned it said he got it from speedway. As I don't see that type of info listed on your axels I was wondering if you could tell me if this axel could be an axel as described or I you could direct me to ones that are
