Proud to announce these trick axle blocks from our top secret factory in Springfield! Sold as a set and complete, picture is a comparison against a stock block.
  • Anodized a dark gray
  • Tighter clearances for more accurate adjustments
  • Axle retention strap to make axle loosening and tightening a breeze
Get these suckers quick, sure to be a hot seller at tracks around the US!

Ignorant question ahead*

What is an Axle retention strap and where is that in the photos?
I've heard complaints about the stock Axle blocks, but I haven't had to change a wheel out on my own yet, so I am not sure what this improves upon exactly.

Thanks in advance

Please put an NSFW tag on this post because of the absolutely uncensored engineering porn.

But really this is a really convenient idea.

The strap mentioned holds the axle in place so you can operate the nut side with holding the axle. Its pictured in use in the first picture.
