We did the hard work for you and put together all of our best gasser front end pieces in convenient kit form to save time and money on your next build. These Gasser Straight Axle Kits included everything you will need to get your old school straight axle setup right!

Axle:

One for show, One for go. Speedway brings to market a heavier duty application of their popular gasser axle selection. When your gasser tribute car has gotten a bit out of hand on your quarter-mile slips, you may want the added assurance that a stronger 3/8” thick wall axle provides. Available in 44, 46, 48, 50 and Custom inch widths for Ford spindles, these axles are ideal for serious drag cars and heavier vehicle applications like 1955+ trucks and 1955-63 Chevy’s. A 28% improvement in strength will give you the added insurance that when the light turns green you can hang your hoops without worry.

  • 28% stronger, 19% stiffer, 28% heavier
  • .375” wall thickness, 1026 DOM steel tubing (std axle is .25” wall)
  • Recommended for off-road / drag race applications
  • Springs:

Achieve a smoother, more comfortable ride with Speedway Super Glide™ springs for your 1928-1934 Ford front end! The ends of the spring leaves of a Super Glide™ spring have a unique nylon button which works as a dry lubricant to significantly reduce leaf-to-leaf friction. This allows the spring to move more easily, thereby giving a softer, quieter ride.

  • Quality tempered steel
  • Standard eye spring
  • Bare steel finish

Hardware:

Kit mounts 1-3/4" wide leaf springs to 2" O.D. tube axle and frame. Will mount 2 springs with 3/4" I.D. eyes. Includes 1-3/4" wide zinc plated shackles # with nylon bushings # , U-bolts # , frame mounts # , shackle mounts # , axle pads # , and all hardware.
