MeanMonte Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Ok im looking into replacing my axles with aftermarket ones to gain reliability on the strip. I know there are a few brands just thought i would ask if anyone has use or recomends certain ones over others... Thanks Eli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heckeng Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I can't really compare different brands, but I installed Moser Axles, and they were quite an improvement at least size wise. They haven't broken yet either, so I guess that's good. The axle on the left is the stock one I pulled out, the one of the right is obviously the new Moser. you can see how the stock one necks down where the moser stays thick. I measured and there were 3/16" difference in diameter at the weak point on the stock axle!!! Hope that is helpful! Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
502ci Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I purchased a set of Moser C-clip axles and new axle bearings. The axles are like 30% stronger than stock and you can see where it comes from as the shaft does not taper. The bearings also were huge compared to the factory ones I removed. I found out fairly recently we have a FGMCC member (Monzaz)that sells axles and related rearend parts and he only lives a few miles from me. He lists parts in the for sale section from time to time. Here's his profile... Monzaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam (Bones) Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I also used mosher axles w/ c-clip eliminators, had to, w/ slicks and the power I was making, it was good piece of mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbreese Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I have a set of Moser c-clip axles and they are substantialy thicker than the stock ones. No problems. Yukon and Strange also make good axles at reasonable price. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc71454 Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I personally only use Mark Williams components. I have never seen or heard of breakage or spline twisting with Mark Williams. They make a Masterline series good to 9.90's for $320 a set. Ran 30 spline axles in my Monte until the end of 2006. They have 900+ passes on them from 12's to low 10's. I just went to 35 spline setup since I plan to put it into the 9's. The 30 splines are going into my chevelle this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarrisQ Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I have never used anything but Moser but I'm sure all the other companies are just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
680HPStroker Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I echo what mc71454 said about Mark Williams axles. Everything they make is for hard core racing and even the Masterline parts are as strong as other companies top of the line pieces are for less money.

Guest Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Has anyone used these axle kits from summit. Alloy Usa kit includes everything for 209.00 http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=ALY%2D12109&N=700+401101+4294908216+4294925080+4294865239+4294790495+115&autoview=sku Seems like a pretty good deal, I was thinking of getting them but wanted to see what you guys think ???

Ian Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Yep I used the USA axles when I was fighting the vibration issue. They came with everything including the bearings. Fit was right on and they are thicker than the stock ones like the ones above from Moser. I think for the money they were a good deal. I am not going to be racing the car, so they should be fine.
