Steve Smith used to prep the uprights to accept Datsun stub axles and (I
think) TR6 halfshafts - see Kas' first book for
photos.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">My car came to me with the uprights modified to accept
larger (unknown origin) bearings and Corvair stub axles, with the Corvair
wheel flange turned down and re-drilled for the Triumph bolt pattern, and
Spicer halfshafts. They've been trouble-free for me; I'm about to
pull them apart for servicing and probably have a duplicate set of uprights
made up so they'll be interchangeable with what's on my car. I believe
Lotus Europa owners also swapped out for the corvair stub axles at the time.
This was the solution "back in the day". Any good driveshaft shop can
make up the halfshafts.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>
