Default :two thumbs: for Raxles.com

Just wanted to let everyone know that we finally got my friends Raxles hybrid axles in his H22 swapped EK. they fit great and got rid of ALL of the binding problems he originally had. Mardi (owner of raxles.com) was super friendly and really new his stuff. I dont gain anything by posting this. I just wanted to let people know that there are other alternatives to custom axles besides DSS and Gator racing.

Raxles.com Gets 2 thumbs up for me

Same here, never heard anything bad, except maybe a whine or two about prices.

Here are some of there axles from my ek22 swap. Same passanger side axle broke 2 times in 2 weeks, and were binding the entire time, marty wanted me to send them back at my own cost then he would decide what to do. I still have these turd *** axles in a box, all I wanted was my money back because they never worked to begin with! Also these were on a stock h22 when they broke while pulling out of a grocery store oncec, and turing at a stop sign the second time!Just my $.02

just wanted to give an update about the axles. i have done about 1500 miles on the raxles and still no binding! h22ek, how long ago did you buy those axles? and what mounts are you using? also, is your car lowered at all?

just got mine installed and and for some reason the driverside is giving me issues, its sitting to far into the CV joint. I wish I had my Digi cam when I was looking at it. But, in all fairness, Marty is asking me to send my old axles (the ones that fit perfect but went bad) and hes gonna build me one just like that as far as length, but to Raxle specs.

Every time i hit a dip with the car, there is a strong Vibration that is felt through out the whole car.
