Default SoCal Peeps...I know you EG/EK guys can help me out....

Ok, been having trouble finding a spot where I can Buy Newly manufactured axles, on a same day basis, for my Teg. I know some of you folks use B series axles for your swaps or SI coupes, so maybe you'll pass down a little help?? I'm In SOCAL, Los Angeles area, and just need help finding a good shop to buy axles that I wont have to worry about. Remans are killing me and I guess maybe I need to drive to a better Autozone to get a decent set of axles??

BUT Any Help would be appreciated...Where do you guys buy your axles from, that have them in stock almost all the time? Remember: Prefer NEW axles, not remanufactured....

Napa, Autozone, Advance Auto, Im sure there are tons of places out in Cali. We have 3 Advance Autos in our area and at one time one of them will have the axles I need in stock.

$500 for axles! Your crazy! They go for like $150 for stock ones, and you get like $75 back when you take the **** ones back.

TCI is the best you can buy hommie. Or so I've heard from many people. Plus, they hold 300whp. I don't lay down that much, but this way I won't need to upgrade.

Most are fine on stock for 300whp, that looks more like "bling" to me. Plus all of the above places listed, you get a lifetime warranty, so if they do break you can take them back for free.

2manycars2choose - You have the exact mindstate as I regarding axles. I'm just looking for any other opinions for OEM axles, non remanufactured, from any spots other than the first 3 mentioned. Please, So Cal/LA Folks, any hints?

Part of the problem I found was the info on honda-tech I used to get mine. I had a DA with a b16, and I went back and fourth 3 times until I got the right ones. I ended up taking the originals ones out and have them measure with all different types of Honda axles. But I had used the info from H-T to get the ones the first time. Either way the god damn original axles were Ok and it wasnt the fix to my problem
