Axles??

Just wanted some input b4 i start buying parts for spring. Im planning on buying Drag radials, wot box, solid motor mount, and putting my poly bushings in transmission mounts. MOds in sig plus i have 36000 miles on my car and still have stock clutch which is working perfectly with no slip at all!!! My question is i wanna run on drag radials in spring but not sure if my axles will hold up. I really dont have money to waste $800 for stage 2 axles. Is there a way to launch the car with out snapping the axles? Ive been to the strip a few times and havent gotten any wheel hop with my setup now.I also dont have an lsd. Thanks

Slip the clutch when launching in first gear and pre-load at the tree. You should be fine in the burnout box too. I'm on the stock clutch (until I get the new one installed) and haven't had any problem is 2 years. I also have a buddy on a 2.9 pulley, 1 step colder plugs, and poly trans mounts who is still on the stock clutch and axles with a whole season of racing behind him. He did what I said and has had no trouble.

How do you like your SLP exhaust? I was lookin to get it, but i haven't found anyone with it to state their opinion.

I love it. Its really loud but with my setup it has a deeper tone and my friends with modded srt-4s say it sounds just like theres. They both have full turbo back exhausts.

wrong section. If you want to save your axles, buy a slick with some soft wrinkle side wall. Drag radials will still have a stiff sidewall and be prone to wheel hopping. You'll have to launch softly still.
