Rear axle size
As a potential Indy builder could anyone tell me which rear axle CV joint size I need, 72mm or 78mm or doesn't it matter.

the only info you need is am i going for drum or disk brake rear end the rear uprights are made to suit option you wish to take and using standard
sierra drive shafts if you've got a F####D one go the scrappy and get a new one, the mk indy isn't like the leggo one that needs special
drive shafts just another way of screwing a few extra quid out of you

the one thing with martin is he keeps things simple. where as the leggo has shortened drive shafts and they need to know what braking system you
have.
martin just retained the original sierra track. the only difference is the rear uprights. martin will tell you that in his opinion drum brakes are
best or should i say good enough as the weight of the car is much lighter than a standrd sierra.
so you really need to get a donor organised first, great bunch of lads on this site even though some of them are southerners
