Experience with: Driveshaftshop.com
Has anyone here had experience with www.driveshaftshop.com axles? I'm going to need some beefy axles for my next setup,and I'm wondering if anyone has done business with them?
I was looking at this setup:
http://www.driveshaftshop.com/item84043.ctlg
Anyone have any comments or suggestions?
Also, I'm either going to go with a InlinePro mainfold, or this one:
1) http://www.hpautoworks.com/furabtuma.html
2) http://www.motormatrix.com/noname2.html
Probably the first one since my car is not going to be track only.

DSS axles are tough as shit. I have seen quaife lsd's break before they have. My friend has the level 3 500hp ones.
As for manifolds i would go with the first one. That design works great. My friend gained 30lbs of torque over his spark racing manifold and it held boost a lot better.

TxHatch: Do the axles handle up to 500 only, or is there a fleshhold build into that? Like, could I run 500hp daily(meaning when I race it), or would I need to upgrade to some 600's or something?
So you would go with a Full-Race before the InlinePro one?
30trq...nice!

Now that i think of it i think he has the level 5's. I didnt see them before.
Go with the full race. You will see better gains with the equal length over the inlinepro log style. Inline pro manifolds are great but i feel they are better for lower hp street cars.

well judging by the terrible spelling errors from the first website, I wouldn't buy anything from them without first speaking with them in detail. (spelling/grammatical/vocabulary errors show low intelligence)
well that's what this psychiatrist said

Driveshaftshop.com is VERY reputable for indestructable axles...so I'm sure their good stuff. Its just a kinda make-shift website.
TxHatch: InlinePro says theirs have a lifetime warrenty on them. They say no matter how much HP your pushing, if you break it, they'll replace it...FREE! I'm still doing research on the full-race manifolds..so they aren't out of the question.

Pep boys sells axles with a life time warranty also, but it doesnt mean they work that well. Manifolds dont break very easily and the equal length will net you the most power.
