Default replacmenet axles

im starting to get a vibration noise between 4-5k. its not the differential, its definitly the axles. I dont the DSS super strength axles, just replacements. I could swap the inner CV joints, but for how long would that setup work for?

If the inner cv's are the only part that is worn out, a very long time.

So long as you are not lowered, swapping will last as long as it took to start vibrating now. So if your car has 70k on it...swapping will probably last another 70k. This is the most cost effective solution.

Otherwise might as well replace the entire axle with something better:

These are about the same price as a complete stock set.

yes..this looks like a really GOOD deal comparing it to the stock set..your only other choice would be spoon's set...which is also about 800 for the set!
