Anyone running aftermarket axles or a combo of oem parts to equal stronger axles?

Im tired of breaking axles at this point. I am having problems finding axles too.

Any input would be great. Thanks

I ran OEM axles all last year on 500+whp with no issues...drag racing and plenty of daily driven miles. Just upgraded to RSX-S 5 lug w/axles for more wheel choices and currently no issues :)

its a joke people make about auto manufacturers.. people get tired of work by friday so if a motor blows they say it must have been built on a friday.. Good motors are built on mondays.. lol

DSS 2.9's

They went in when I did my swap originally, almost 200K miles now.

I can't wait to get them and my new motor installed! There aren't any fitment issues with a K24A/K20A2 Build with K20A2 tranny right?

I had the DSS 2.9s also and had problems with them. Boots splitting and throwing out all the grease and then of course the cv joints started to go. The DSS axles are now my spares and I am running on Autozone replacement axles.

I keep sheering off autozone axles at the CV's.. Luckily they are lifetime replacement axles, but it gets old chainging them out.
