Portal Axles
by Drift on Thu Jul 02, 2009 12:19 am
After our laning trip last weekend we spotted a couple of Mogs rotting away on a farm, this led to a discussion of how portal axles operate, I tried my best with diagrams on the mud on one of the cars, but here is a better description and some pictures of a 90 with them on at a meet at a friends farm a while ago.
