so does anyone think i should buy DSS axles or just stick with the OEM replacement axles i will be installin a LSD so i think the axles should be ok but i would hate to take it to the track and snap an axle on the first run I know that HRC use stock axles on their fire with slicks

ive always said, id rather break a $90 axle, than a $500 trans...

That and it doesn't seem to me like the stock axles are all THAT bad. I mean, PJ's only ever managed to break 2, and if you've ever seen the way he drives, that would tell you something lol.

'Nuff said

thats what i was thinking i mean if i replace everything with HD parts then where is the weak link lol and the axles only come with a 1 yr warranty yeah i think ill stay stock axles

Dss failed me 2 times, my stock axles lasted longer.

Post a pic of the bottom end looking at the rods, interested minds are wondering.

To see if the rods are power metal or forged.

Ouch for what that thing does thats expensive. You can get a WAY better tuning interface and much more powerful hardware from the aem ems4. The haltech tuning software takes a long time to load and crashes all the time and randomly loses connection to the unit, so just make sure you save your tunes constantly.

i bought mine thru summit just found one that fit in the dimensions of the core support. i figured since the car ran good with a stock s10 radiator that it should be fine with the full aluminum and bigger core of this one

stock size is 26x15x1 and this one is 24x16x3
i bought this one its closest to stock size and also allows you to delete our stock expansion tank due to it having its own cap just need a small overflow bottle
