[TR] Goodparts endorsement

Yes, 

I was running GoodParts half-shaft CV axles and updated preloaded aluminum wheel bearing hubs and flanges in my green Stag since about 2007 if I recall correctly.  There was a writeup in the Stag Newsletter at the time.  I have installed them in almost every Stag I have owned or worked on in my Garage, got a pile of old UJ axles shafts to show for it..

Another feature built into these CV axles is if you upgrade to rear disk brake calipers, there is a clip on the solid shaft that allows the axle to compensate for a caliper mounting bracket spacing.  That is the same for the Stag or the TR series CV axles.

And the CV half shaft axles are designed for 300bhp which is more than a standard TR/Stag diff will handle which is supposedly 250bhp

I’ll add that Richard and I worked together to complete the CV half shaft axles last issue of the solid axle piece so the CV half shafts fit properly into a Stag.  

Richard and I went through the final full travel suspension measurements which required Richard to change the initial length of the solid shaft piece of the axle, which meant a couple of iterations shipping axles until the fit was perfect for full suspension travel of the swing arm, that we setup without a shock damper in place to allow for the most travel and movement of the CV under any circumstance of suspension combinations.  99% of users would never know that for standard and fast road driving, but it makes a difference for autocross

Now the CV axles can be properly ordered for and installed on a Stag ( or other TR with IRS, which means those are the last half shaft axles you will ever need for your Triumph.

This is just to let you know that I am totally satisfied with purchasing parts from  Richard Good of Goodparts. I had a question about something, and Richard went out of his way making  a fantastic and detailed  movie for me about installing the part (and no extra charge!). He is truly an honest person and deserves a round of applause.
