1VJ front axle

Post by neale »

Does anyone have a 1VJ axle laying around, so they can give me the length and diameter, please?

Trying to work out whether I can make different front end bits to work together, and I only realised late in the piece that I hadn't factored the axle requirements into it :foot_tap:

Soooo. if anyone has the 1VJ front axle dimensions (and S10 if anyone has that) available and could share same, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Ta,

1VJ front diameter is 15mm.
How did I find out??
Typed 'diameter' in the forum search box, top right.
Any one can do it. :lol:

If you have the bearing number for the S10, you can reverse engineer the diam from that, I suspect it will be 15mm also.

So I stopped worrying and lo and behold, things did get worse!

Thanks guys, I did manage to confirm that the diameter is 15mm, but the bigger question was actually the length, which I can't find anywhere.

255mm is the overall length
53mm is the fat hollow unthreaded length
177mm is the 15mm shank length
The rest is the threaded end
I just happened to have one handy while I'm waiting for my wheels to be built. :dance:

Thanks a lot Matt, that was what I was sorta hoping when I asked, that someone would have one out.
