Default Need Axle Help!!!

I have a 96 Civic Coupe with a b18c. ive had the swap in for a little over a year or so and ive put probly 4 sets of new axles in since then. And i know what your thinking (STOP DOING BURNOUTS) truth is i really dont do that many burnouts. i live in PA and our roads here are garbage and pot holes kill.

but anyway, i was just wondering whats a good set of axles that i shouldnt have a problem with.

thankss.

is the car very low? that can make them wear a LOT faster. if your car is lowered a lot raise it up. and are you using used axles?

yeah, its basically slammed to the ground. i have K Sports..

and im using brand new axles each time..

I had thought that it being so low might have somthing to do with it. I lifted up probly about half an inch more for winter & when it got nice out i lowered it back down, and about a month or so after that. POP, theres goes my axle.

raise the car up or keep buying axles...

edit- reman axles should have a lifetime warranty, just hold onto the receipt

that is the reason why you are going through axles to fast. Raise up the car and you won't go through so many axles. Autozone has Lifetime warranty on axles..
