Have had a look through some old posts, but not found what I'm looking for.

I am recall someone had compared different stub axles from different model kingswoods, like hq, hj, hx one tonner, etc etc, and found some to have a little more meat in them than others. I was hoping to find out which of these were the stronger, so I can begin searching for some.

Thanks in advance!!

Thanks for that, I obviously wasn't looking hard enough!!!!

Much appreciated!!!

And as Rory has kindly discovered for us, they are stronger because of the heat treating, not 'extra meat' in them.

I ran out and picked up a set of 1 tonner stubs after he pointed this out to me as I have now worked out how I can use these in my custom setup rather then CRS drop stubs.

You want the ones with the 'Blueing' on the stub from the heat treating.

Thanks again, so the search begins!!! Anyone got any spare laying around they want to part with?!

You might need to speak nicely to me!

though they are both seriously thicker than HQ ones

I mustn't have seen any HQ ones before then, all the H series stubs I have actually seen have looked the same except the blue bit on some of them.

I'll have to keep a look out.

And i thought the blueing was from bearing overheating

I'll have to check these ones I picked up for nothing yesterhoo.....
