I have started my M38 project and need some advice one of my Bendix style of axles is broken and I am wondering if anyone has replaced with Spicer style instead. what are the pros and cons.

I prefer the Bendix or Zeppa axle knuckles. The Spicer or Carden joint limits steering and requires the re-adjustment of the steering stops because they won't tolerate the tight angles the older types will.
