What happened to the RCV Axle Kit?

[David BV]

Hi,

I just had a look at the Taylor Race Tech Support page (http://www.taylor-race.com/techsprt.cfm) and found out that the RCV Axle Kit is no longer there. (It's still on Google's cache so the change is quite recent.) I was counting on buying one for this year's car so this has me a little worried...

Anyone has the inside scoop on whether it's still available or not? I would really like to know quite quickly (and I probably am not the only one) in order to get Plan B going ASAP.

I sent an e-mail to Scotty (the one whose address was on the drawing) and waiting for a reply.

Thanks, and happy holidays,

When I last talked with Scott he mentioned that Taylor was the only distributor for the RCV axle kit but they were designing their own system with tulips and all to sell. I imagine that they are almost ready to release that system and stoped offering the RCV kit.

Sorry for the delay guys, Took some time off.
Last year we made a deal with the RCV crew to sell all there remaining stock of parts for the FSAE program.I still have a very small inventory of those parts which will be some axles, tripod joints and the Polaris outer stubs.
I do not have any of the Torsen RCV stubs in stock but have RCV making a small run so I can pair them up with the parts I have here.When they will be done is still up in the air.
All of our new Tulip syle stub axles are up on the web site www.taylor-race.com (http://www.taylor-race.com) in the chain drive section.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
