Anyone see any axels for sale anywhere besides DSS?
I have a set of Fidanza's I am looking to upgrade, possibly even to better set of them, but I cant even find them for sale anywhere anymore.

Why the aversion to DSS? Cost? Wait time? I don't think I've seen any alternatives to DSS that are quite as strong.

If you want Fidanza axles that bad, contact www.ultrarev.com as they sell them and possibly offer an upgrade to the standard Fidanza axles.

raxles is another one. But keep in mind that these aren't like stage 2 or anything. The DSS's are expensive but the only good alternative. I still like stock. I'm also still waiting for my DSS's that were being rushed through so I could have them last thursday. Hmm....

Okay.

Hense I not going with DSS is because they do take a long time to get, and they are super pricey. Yes I know they are the strongest out there, but I dont need the absolute strongest ya know.

Thanks for the links though guys.

My 0.02 cents:
I tried the Fidanza Axle, NOT GOOD. They lasted me two runs only. Save the money for the DSS. Advance Auto Parts axles have lasted me more. These are the ones I'm running now. They have witstand dozens of low 12 sec runs and my 11.9 sec run with slicks. Something I found out was that by using the factory height spring on the rear supension I haven't had anymore axles problems.
If your car is lowered on all four corners and you are having problems breaking axles, try using the factory height springs on the rear suspension.
