Hey i need an axle, anyone got one?

 

HAHA did you snap one? and if you did were you racing lol?

 

no i was sitting in my garage and it snapped. of course i was racing. it was gonna happen sooner or later cutting 1.9-2.0's on stock mounts with almost 50,000 miles and over 30 passes on DR's. (not to mention the other 100+ on stock tires)

 

Thats awesome what side do you need.

 

Nice! DSS Stage 2 axles for you then.

 

dont have the funds for that right now

 

I have a 06 right side axel(the one that is fardest from the tranny) pm me if u need it

 

Me neither, thats why I don't even like launching the car the way it is now. I will get slicks eventually, and I don't get wheelhop no matter what, I just would feel better with upgraded axles.

 

are they any different between sides?

also, for those who know- are the left and right stock axles exactly the same? i broke a driver side one, so if i come across a spare passenger one, would it work?

does anyone know if our halfshafts are EXACTLY the same as the IRL's or any cars sharing the tranny, such as a SAAB? also, what model saab's use this tranny

 

the saab 9-3 shares your tranny.. im pretty sure

 

I work at a Saab dealership, and the new one's have the 6-spd Getrag.

There are lots that used the F35, but I can't remember which years exactly

 

I assume you have G85 stu???

sorry to hear of the break man
good luck

 

nope anomalous i dont, kinda puts to rest the whole "YOU GOTTA HAVE LSD TO SPIN THEM BOTH!!!!" argument doesnt it?

game, set, and match thanks to SS33-



should be here late this week!

 

Unless you got one side spinning and it caught sudden traction. Then the open diff would be reason why it broke. It is possible to spin both with an open diff if both wheels have the same amount of traction. But if condition go bad things break.

 

trust me there was nothing spinning except the axle haha

 

Your sig should read "Got Wheel Hop" because torque doesn't snap axles.

 

Oh really is that why they are rated by power? too bad there was no hop, and good thing you were there to see it happen

 

I wasn't hoppin when I broke mine either, it was in 2nd gear at ~3-4k

When you have the right traction mods done you can def. throw down enough torque to shear the stockers in two

 

yep, espcially on DR's haha

 

Shhhh, don't tell my car that. It doens't know that the axles should be in danger right now. According to Zinner, I should be around 290 to the wheels, and the car still hooks in second. Makes me wonder how the car still holds it.

 

its The Force

 

Mm.. I had to take out my drive shaft shop stage 2 axles when i took the ss in for abs warranty. I only got to 2 track nights (3 others i went to were rained out), and have only had the car on the road since january. They are sitting on the shelf in the garage, next to my 66 mustang 302 that I've been working/driving lots.

They cost $800US new.

^^^ ok? haha was there a point to this?

 

I think so. It caused a guy in an Altima 3.5 with a 100 shot, tuned, to get 'Yanked' by two cars from 40-60mph, and steadily pulled from there up. I have a Jedi Cobalt!

interesting.
I was almost hoping you were gonna say you didnt have the LSD.
once i saw that it was drivers side it piqued my curiosity.
