So - with the race at Smith Road Raceway coming up and myself and ATC-Horse planning on attending, we needed a solution for stabalizing her Auto-X a bit more. We have lowered it by flipping the dog bone after TF and that helped a ton. NOW Somehow, she found and purchased a +6 axle for her 84 200X and I installed it tonight. WOW!! looks sweet. Outside of tire to outside of tire now measures 48" - it is wider than my 350X!!!

So here's the question - who made these +6 axles for 200X's back in the day? There are no markings on it what so ever? Was duraBlue in the game back in the early 80's???

BTW - we can't wait for the race Labor Day weekend - OTC: we can't wait to see you all again!!!:w00t:

SWEET! The 200X was the most popular 3 wheeler ever made. There were tons of player in the game back then. Pretty sure Durablue was one of them.

There also was a company called "NASA" that did alot of axles. Extended 110, 185s and 200x were big sellers for them.

I bet it's a Durablue, my old AutoX had a extended durablue axle that I got off ebay. I also used offset rims and 300ex hubs to stick the tires way out.
