Good axels?
Anybody know a place to pickup some good remanufactured axels for a D16 Civic? The cheapest I can get new Honda ones is like $170 or so, just wanted to know what the best alternative is. Money is tight these days, and I've gotta get new rotors/pads, change the timing belt and do my axels, so I'm trying to find the most cost effective way to take care of this, thanks

Well I found a place on the internet, driveshaftshop.net, they have a Honda/Acura stage 1, 25% stronger than OEM for $150! Plus if you've got some old B-axles, they give you like $75 exchange or something like that. I mailed them to make sure they've got axels for SOHC's and I'm gonna go with those. he cheapest I could get from Honda was $193 per axel, so I'm saving almost $100 plus getting slightly stronger axels, can't go wrong there

How much power are you talking about that you need to be concerned before breaking cheaper axles?
