It's Axle time. What's the best option here?

Not enough feedback on the BBG axles yet. I do know there are many out there that have them. I have a set in my car.

Running 10.00 you probably could get away with redeye axles being the stock axles held up awhile. I picked up a used set on ebay for $550. Widebodies use the same axles so there are lots of them out there

The DSS would be a good choice also
Forgot this one.

I've thought about redeye stuff too for those exact reasons. My biggest thing is the street/track miles. I've put somewhere between 6-7k on the car alone thru 4 events so far this year. I just don't want to do it twice (or 3x) and hopefully not in anyone's driveway again.

Well...I think we're gonna gamble on the Redeye stuff...

The stock stuff did take Hella abuse for a long time, I prefer an OEM solution when possible and TBH I'm not ready to drop 3g's on a set of axles just yet. By that point I feel like diff & big boy stuff should be done together or close to it.

My closest "power broker" claims they're not a power broker or DC dealer...says only 5 dealers have on-hand in the entire nation with an estimated 45 day wait. Closest dealer is essentially an entire days drive round trip...

...but of all places HHP actually had one set BNIB on the shelf. So we got an order in as soon as we could.

Hoping this cures a bunch of the driveline vibration we picked up before the failure. I'll be keeping the parts store axle as an emergency spare.
