I am doing what Bret is dong. Making adapters that will allow me to use 930 axles
Scott, can you get them for the 01X????

Actually, I have made adaptors to match the CVs, which are the same as the hub flange. I've also made one adaptor wider so the shafts are the same length. I'll have to dig up what they are made of
Yes, I think that's what my builder is saying too. 130mm that is.
Do you know of any OES setup that will work for us GT40 folks for this or is it a custom job thing?
Thanks!

Darrin,
This is what I have done in my car with an 01X, adaptors: http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-tec...s/33416-01x-016-axle-question.html#post321726
That way I can use the same 100mm CVs either end and don't have get get expensive custom shafts made up, just a shaft... I've also equalled out the offset so I don't have to have different length shafts
If you want to see in more detail and the reason why, see Andy Hill's work on his 01X he used in his Esprit: 4.2 V8 ABZ conversion of Lotus Esprit :: motorgeek.com (you need to scroll down a bit for CV adaptor work)

No 01X is only one size flange.
