hi all, well back again nearly twelve months after starting the first project, starting this project with out purchasing the bike yet but can start making the rear end with out having that as i do know what bikes i have in mind and what i need to do to get the rear frame started to fit any of the ones i have in mind just waiting to drop on a low mileage bike at a reasonable price eg intruder,shadow, vn, magna etc and not forgeting the good old virago,...... all though not a custom bike i have not ruled out the xj but would have to change tank and seat and get it more cruiser style.

Ok going to use a reliant axle this one was courtesy of stumpy (thank you stumpy) its an A stamp axle 3.23/1 so today thought i would start with the axle by striping it down removing and checking the inners,then remove all brackets,clean the tubes back,remove hubs from inner shafts and clean back,will get the diff casting sand blasted when but back together
