Cheap Axles pulling out
Guys,
I have bought those $88 axles on ebay for my Ek9 with ITR 99 SPEC engine,
I have noticed twice now, the RIGHT SIde AXLE pulls a bit out of tranny and leaks the oil out messing the complete underside of the car.
Anyone suggesting what this might be?
I am thinking the quality of those cheap axles are more for less powered engines , I am considering buying 2 new tranny axles seals and 2 hasport stage 1 axles .
let me know your opinion.

Probably the axles are to short. If you're slammed to the ground you might want to raise your car to stock height that will make the axles in less of a bind. The best idea was to either buy oem b series axles or some from DSS or hasport.

Axles being short is my guess too which is typical ebay
I run new stock replacement axles in my built d16 turbo on 20psi with no power related issues and these are advance auto axles....my car is also lowered hard about a little over 3 inches

Guys,I got the EGBAX hasport axles, they work excellent, what i have been noticing is that after some races the right side axle (hasport axle) still pops out,what would cause this to happen?

Re: Cheap Axles pulling out
I know this guy personally who sells these axles (no, Im not him, rest assured), and unless youre running a Rb26DETT or something, these axles are fine.
He's used them in his Boosted b18 em1, and boosted itr and nothing's happened yet
