Bought the Speedway gasser straight axle kit for my '46 Austin gasser, and was extremely pleased with the complete kit. I had a couple small bolts that were missing, and even though it was 6 months since I made the initial purchase, Speedway customer service sent me out the parts right away, with no hassles! Just a great product, with great support!

Very nice workmanship, and complete right down to every nut, bolt, and grease caps. Very impressive for a reasonable price. Only thing I can say negative is the shackles seemed a tiny bit lighter than I would expect.
