Axles Unlimited, ......of Charlotte Options

[Spider77]

So, anyone here ever used these guys? I was looking around for another source of half shafts (cause the A1 I have the boot is splitting already!) and came across these guys. I guess they pretty much make their own axles and such. And from judging by the pics, their races, cages, etc are far more beefy than stock.....take a look. Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on these guys. BTW, the quote was 60 bucks, plus core and shipping....

128 views and no one has any dealings with this company? Anyhow, I'm going to get one, cause the A1 has started to spew grease. I'll take some side by side photos when I get it all together.

i'm sorry are you looking at these stronger axles for you stock gt celica???

[Spider77]

I am, but I kind of came across the guys by accident. Mostly cause the rebuilt A1 POS that I have, the boot already started to tear, and now is throwing moly. They (Axles Unlimited) say they have "beefed" up races/cages, etc.....So I will find out as soon as they give me a core charge.
And so we are not off track, I am not looking as in a means to upgrade, but the price was about the same as a rebuilt stock, so why not go for better?

[BonzaiCelica]

ya if you want to but like you said if its better than stock and is the same price why not. I'd always go with oem over this but just research them hopefully another member will leave some feedback

[Spider77]

they offer a lifetime warranty if the returned core is oem. We will see, im just waiting on core charge pricing and then i'll be able to get this going. Look foward to some side by sides.

update as i would like to invest especially if it is lifetime warranty...if i want the whole axle...is that the front axle shaft or front axle beam?

If you're jsut looking for an axle go to NAPA. I bought a new axle from NAPA for 60 bucks and it worked just fine. Just don't get the remanufactured ones. I bought one of those first and it leaked pretty bad. The axles have a 3 year, 36000 mile warranty or something like that.

Well, we will see. I am still waiting for a response to my email, I may just call them tomorrow during lunch. @jlive, the reason why I want to see their axles is to see how much more "beef" there is to them.

Well, if nothing else pops up within the next two weeks, I'll be getting one. Price isnt bad and I just hope its better than what I got to replace the last one.
