driveshaft shop axles
ok i have a quick question, i had just recently bought some stage 2 axles from them and eveytime i hit i bump or the shock is compressed and when i turn left at highway speed the passenger axle will rub. but it sounds like it the bearings rubbing. has anyone had any experience with these axles? should i just call them and have them send new ones?
You are going to have to get down there and shake the **** out of the axle while it is up on jackstands (for safety) and let us know if anything is loose feeling, is the axle nut tight, is the axle all the way into the tranny. Do you see any visual rub makings now (witness marks).

there is no shake, no rub marks, and the nut is tight torqued to 180 flbs. i talked to the guys at driveshaft shop they want me to put the car at ride hieght remove the nut and push on the end to see if there is any play. if not they will be too long, i will let you know

ok turns out the shafts were too long, i was supposed to get a half inch of play on ride hieght with out the lock nut but only got 1/8" play and only beating it with a hammer. also ripped the boot on the drivers side. thanks
