It's Axle time. What's the best option here?

[fubar569]

Picked up a vibration during sick summer.. then promptly Chucked the driver's side on the way home during a pull. Outer CV exited the chat in epic fashion. Never found all the internals. Looks like it sheared right off at the base of the cup? Also...diff splines were starting to twist. Days were numbered regardless.

51k miles. 42k modified. Hundreds of hits. It owes me nothing.

Redeye?
DSS?
GForce?
BadBoyz?

Car is not lowered and never will be. I do not autocross. Drag racing and Drag & Drive only. Lots of miles. Lots of launches. Great to absolutely Excellent prep.

F for the stockers. You will be missed. Thank you for your service.

Got a right side RE axle on my shelf with a leaking CV joint only. You pay for shipping and I decided just yesterday IDK what else I want to do with it. You just need to get that CV fixed and save a bunch of cash for a while maybe?

She's already got an O'Reilly special in the driver's side to make it mobile again. It was the cheapest and quickest way to get home. It smoothed out SOME of the Driveline vibration which leads me to believe the passenger side is also on the way out...or the driveshaft is also finally ready for a refresh service after 5.5 years or so.

I appreciate the offer though.

The shafts arent the only issue ATM either. I'm seeing fuel pressure drop sometimes at top of the tach...so it may be time for socks & pumps. The socks are probably 3.5yrs old and the pumps were new in 2019 so...I got my work cut out for me.

Dss level 5 2000hp axles just put them in my car. "1 piece" like factory design

Mine didn't fail at the CV I snapped the shaft IN HALF

Fck G-Force and everything about their axles. One pass, pop.

These , they supposedly warranty them for any type of breakage, not like DSS or GForce

 

[fumanchu182]

we have them on a shop car, apparently me laying down 8's wasn't cool enough to get a set, moot point my chasis is going to the crusher next week

The BBG axles? How do they seem to be holding up? I haven't heard of anyone running them yet but if DSS is 2300 already...f&@k it..

RCV is supposed to have axles for our stuff. They debuted at PRI. I should call them up and check status.

They held up on the other car. No issues so far.

@Linda's Hell Cat none, car is being dismantled. I have no support and a race car requires support. Im over it. Chasis is off to crusher next week. I have a shit ton of parts for sale.

Not enough feedback on the BBG axles yet. I do know there are many out there that have them. I have a set in my car.

Running 10.00 you probably could get away with redeye axles being the stock axles held up awhile. I picked up a used set on ebay for $550. Widebodies use the same axles so there are lots of them out there

The DSS would be a good choice also

 

[Unholy707]

You can get DSS on sale 200-300$ off. Redeye should be fine for 10s, I thought you were turning it up more. Stock 2015 axles were good for many 9.8 passes on my car

Car is at least 9.80's capable. Been there 3x already. Only running 10.0's because it's less crap to deal with overall. The points chase keeps it interesting.

I am going for not doing axles again. Ha. But srsly. Car will probably not ever go faster than 9.0/150 because half of me refuses to cage a street car.

It does weigh 4900lbs with me in it though.

He also has KellTracs he doesn't play the stupid suspension games stock cars do.
