Autozone has warranty also. I'm not looking for a warranty, I'm looking for parts that will last. If I have a good set, I wouldn't need a spare. That's ghetto.

And this is what it looks like now...
I am going to put a mesh grille in, some fog lights, and also a back window visor.

Az axles are more than enough for what you got port. I daily drove on those for a gooooood minute without issues. Just about as good as oem. It only gives you problems if you got a pretty aggressive clutch. But then again, even oem axles can't hold up to a real aggressive clutch. Why not just rebuild your stock ones?

Yea, I've rebuilt my axles 3 times and they are actually a mix and match of like 3 or 4 OEM axles. They were great, but the track use this year got to them. The outer CV joint on my passenger side tore a boot, and now it's clicking and wobbling. I looked up just the outer joints and IIRC they were around 600 bucks a joint. Which I was considering doing. However, that would leave me 600 bucks down and with only one new joint. OEM is the best and they can last a quarter of a million miles if properly maintained. My Autozone's would always click after a year or so. I took a set apart one time and discovered they don't harden their ball bearings or swivel hubs. The most critical parts. Instead they use thicker ***** and a larger swivel cage, which does not work and decreases the articulation range of the joint. Boo cheap! Thanks G. Do you have a webpage for them by any chance? Appreciate it. GMG.

When did having spare parts become ghetto? I guess everyone who still has a spare tire in their cars is ghetto.

Daaamn. Your car looks way better without the hood spacers. Dope pics, brotha. I only got one. Of that funny Ruckus mini biker gang we saw. Haha, I was behind them for a while. Very cool. Super loud, kinda annoying, and they didn't know how to signal, but super cool. I'll post the pic up later. Thanks for sharing, Lance. Not everyone can make it out to shows or events so it's nice when one of us gets a chance to and can share the experience with everyone else.

Don't worry about thieves, they will spoil your ownership experience. If it gets jacked it gets jacked, there's nothing you can do to prevent it. A Lo Jack might put your mind more at ease, but will not prevent it from getting jacked. Just drive it, forget them thieves.
Sup, Phi? How's your whip? Updates? Pics?
