Quality cv axles

Hey guys,
So i have an 05 cobalt and i need to get new cv axles. I eventually want to do a stage 2 kit and im wondering if i should get the zzp stage one axles, or would a stock replacement be fine. If anyone can recommend a pace othe than zzp for some performance axles i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Napa sells arguably the same axles for a lesser price, as stock units.

Yeah ive heard that napa sells the same. Are they just overall the same qaulity, like as in amount of horsepower they can handle? And does napa just sell the as stock replacements under the napa brand. Thanks a bunch.

Honestly yes they will be just as good
I used to rebuild axels, all moving parts get replaced. If anything els is worn or damaged,
Replace or scrap metal( outers groove if ran dry, inners rarely ever need replacing )and i worked for a shady guy, he would have to pay me again if it fails, so...

They come with warrantys so youe good dude

Remand alternators, meeeh sometimes thejr too far gone but they contiune and try to ****** rig. Axels is much more straight forward

But regarless if u buy new or remand take it out of the box and swivel the ends, and move them before you leave the store. They should take some effort, but not **** sucking strog arm it, and shouldnt flop around. A firm grip will do it
