Description
Drag Racing Applications ONLY
Housing with 3 1/4″ or 3 1/2″ OD tubing
Custom floater axles – Sold Separately
Safety Benefits
Housing supports weight, bending loads, and tire shake
Axle shafts only requirement is to transfer torque
Prevents the possibility of axle flange breakage
Advantages
Housing supports weight, bending loads, and tire shake
Axle shafts only requirement is to transfer torque
Prevents the possibility of axle flange breakage
Spindles
• 4130 chrome moly
• Machined with large inner bearing radius
• Vastly increases bending load strength
• Provides rigid support for hubs & bearings
• Designed for 3 1/4″ or 3 1/2″ O.D. housing tubing
• Finish turning required to suit axle tube I.D.
Spindle Radii Rings
• Mates with large spindle radius
• Creates positive inner bearing seat
• Machined from stainless steel
• Provides corrosion resistant sealing surface
DDM Floater Hubs
• 2024-T351 billet aluminum
• Machined for 5″ bolt circle
• Integral Dynamic Drive Mount (DDM)
• Secures rotor & allows for thermal expansion
• Drastically reduces rotor warping, coning & cracking common with other systems
• Black anodized finish
Choice Of Stainless Steel Rotors
• Stainless steel is highly resistant to heat and corrosion
• Exhibits 48% greater yield strength at 1,000° F compared to carbon steel
• Fully ground surface
Evolution S Stainless
• Unique Aero Slot design reduces rotating weight and promotes even heat dissipation
• Scalloped design further reduces rotating weight
• Machined for Dynamic Drive Mount system
• 11.500″ O.D. – .355″ Thick
• 4.6 lbs
Heavy Duty Stainless
• Directional slots reduce rotating weight
• Greater rotor mass for the most extreme conditions
• Machined for Dynamic Drive Mount system
• 11.500″ O.D. – .355″ Thick
• 5.3 lbs
Four Piston Billet Evolution 4 Calipers
• Stainless steel pistons mitigate heat transfer to brake fluid
• Reverse dish pressure vessel piston maximizes stiffness
• High retraction piston and O-ring design to eliminate drag during acceleration
• Computer finite element analysis (FEA) optimized and field-tested calipers- Evolution 4 design improves piston retraction, pedal feel, and stiffness resulting in improved pad wear and exemplary braking efficiency
• All pistons are 1.750″ for increased clamping force
Choice of Brake Pads
DRM-35 Metallic Brake Pads
• Provides high resistance to brake fade
• Recommended for vehicles going over 150 MPH in the 1/4 mile
• Maintains decent starting-line cold holding capabilities
• May leave pad residue on rotors when not using parachute
• While common, it’s recommended to remove when installing new pads
DTC-30 Semi Metallic Brake Pads
• Provides the best starting-line cold holding power
• Recommended for vehicles going 150 MPH or less in the 1/4 mile
Caliper Mounts
• 6061-T6511 aluminum
• Clear anodized
• 3/8″-24 press nuts installed
Press-in Wheel Studs
• 8740 chrome moly
• Anti-rotational designed head
• .6865″ shank / 5/8″-18 threads
• Two lengths available *
* Please supply wheel thickness
Lug Nuts
• Flanged steel nuts
• Includes aluminum anti-marring washers
Steel Drive Plates
• 8620 hardened steel
• Scalloped design removes unnecessary weight
• Designed for 40 spline shaft with 45° pressure angle *
• Black oxide finish
* Inner axle splines can be made to suit other spools
Timken® Tapered Bearings & Races
• Premium components from a trusted name
• Ensures proper fit & long bearing life
Solid Preload Spacer
• Prevents excessive preload
• Maintains consistency
Spindle Nut Retention System
• Heat treated spindle nut tapped for set screws
• Twin tab nut retainer securely engages spindle
• Dog point set screws prevent nut rotation
• Ensures proper bearing preload is maintained
Mounting Hardware
• All premium grade
• Provides safety and security
