Our latest upgrade to our already bad to the bone 9" kit.
31 Spline axles. Yep, we have made a major improvement that will soon be available on Gforce axles. You might have seen us talking about out 33 spline Outlaw axles in a few big power high end builds. The problem with the huge 33 spline axles was the cv joint was huge and you had to clearance the control arms to get them to fit properly. What we needed was a larger axle bar that would fit in a standard 930 style cv housing. There were a couple options available from a couple sources but we didn't like the fact that they were based on a standard cv star and sacrificed strength as the axle bar got larger. So what we did was we designed and manufactured our own. We used FEM modeling to show us where the weak areas were on the standard cv stars and then we added material to every aspect of the cv star to make it stronger, added over a 1/4" of spline engagement area and also made the new cv stars out of a really strong aerospace material that has even better impact shock load ratings then 300m. We will also be coating our new cv stars in a special Maganese coating that you find on high end firearms to give it better surface lubricating properties. Our new cv stars will be machined right here in house on our cnc machines. Take a look at how our new cv stars dwarfs the standard 28 spline and even the 30 spline cv stars. (28 spline on left, 30 spline in middle and our new 31 spline on right) (28 spline on left, 30 spline in middle and our new 31 spline on right) Here is a photo showing the stock axle on the left, a 28 spline axle, a 30 spline axle and then our new 31 spline axle on the right. By designing a larger splined cv joint, it allows us to use a considerably larger and stronger axle bar. Our new 31 spline axle bar is HUGE! Preliminary testing has been done on these axles in our shop car. We will be also testing the new axles in a couple of Camaro's over the next few weeks. Production is in full swing so start looking for our new 31 spline axles being available in the next few weeks. We can also add our 300m cages to this combination to make a bullit proof combination. Give us a call if you have any questions. Thanks Chris |

Being chief in charge of axle abuse, I am so glad I did not go with anything other than G-Force 9" and axles! I am looking forward to having these in my car! When I realized I had built the ultimate axle abuse car, I thought I would never find a solution and then you build exactly what you said you would to hold up! Your support is by far the best experience I have had with my car to date! Thank you, there is no way 99% of the people would go with anything else but your product if they only knew the quality of your products and how outstanding the level of support you provide is! :happy anim:: happyanim::happya nim:

OH yea this looks like the ticket for me. I hope to go get the engine late in the week if all works out. Looks like everything other than the CAM , lifters and a couple of valves are OK. LPE should have ordered the CAM in Friday so it should be finished in a week or so. I will be going to get it ASAP and will have it in in a couple of more days. Bobby is looking into a progressive 100 to 150 shot nitrous system with a dedicated fuel system for me. We are planning on bringing it in from second gear on, should be fun!

Chris, the GForce stuff is hanging tough. Been out beating the crap out of the new HKE LSX 427 and the Gforce 9" rear, 3.5" aluminum DS and axles have been truly awe inspiring.
This setup seems to be begging for more, beg no more as this will probably happen soon. Steve and SNL are setting me up with Twin PT6766 turbos. Looking to start at about 1000rwhp. Probably gonna go with a Monster triple clutch at the same time. Thanks again for great stuff and even better customer service!!! Jim

Glad you like your 9". We sold I think 5 Monster twins and a couple triples last week during our Monster clutch sale. |

I love it! I've spent all week visiting a bunch of the smaller shops or "workshops" as they call them here.
I've met some terrific people and have seen some really neat cars, 4 door 9 second street cars are very common down here. I fly out to Perth for a couple days next week. Thanks Chris |
