Overall Assessment

Customers highly recommend the Speedway gasser straight axle kit for its high-quality and heavy duty components. They find the kit complete with every part needed, from nuts and bolts to grease caps. Users have praised its easy installation and excellent workmanship, supporting its practicality. Customers have used it for various model builds including a '63 Corsair and '46 Austin gasser, clearly affirming its versatility. The axle's reasonable pricing is also commended. A minor criticism is that the shackles could be more substantial. Clinical excellence and usability have made this Speedway kit a favored choice for customers building their own gasses.

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.
