Default where to buy axles?

I've tried all the local parts stores and they can't get any. Honda wants about $700 for each. Where's a good place to get them?

Never had to buy axles. But the Driveshaft Shop has them. HERE

Not quite sure how well built they are. Or have you tried looking for a salvage S2000?

They're worn out and shake. Axle spacers got rid of it for awhile but it's back.

Have you swapped the CV buckets? https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/241...diy-with-pics/

If it's shaking on acceleration, it's likely the CV is getting pitted. I swapped mine about 5 years ago and it just recently started to do it again on one side so I had the axle replaced by a mechanic friend of mine. I do not know where he got the axle but it was only $180ish (non-oem)

I forgot about doing this. Thanks. It shakes under acceleration at around 40-50 mph.

Swapping the Axles is super easy also.
