Default Axel Upgrades

Are upgraded axels stronger than stock ones in regards to having a lowered car as a daily driver. If you have your car dropped 2.5" or more the likely hood of changing your axels is comon. Now if you buy stronger axels to help hook-up your increased hp, will the axel eventually crap out due to ride height?

i dont think i've ever read about breaking axles due to ride height. If you lower your car your stock axles should be fine.

sorry not braking axels, but having a lowered car you wear out the joints faster than when at stock height. So what I'm asking is are the joints stronger?
