I just wanted to see how many of you have this and how happy or unhappy are you with it. I loved the craftsmanhip and quality of the axles. How long have you had it, which sides.

Well when I did my 5-speed conversion, I used Raxles and the passenger side went out after about 700 miles(and a good bit of drag strip launches), but I think they forgot to put grease in that boot.

I replaced both driveaxles when the clutch was replaced at 99,000 miles. Both sides were leaking grease from the outer boots. With the transaxle out I thought it would be a good time to replace them. I was impressed with the quality of the raxles driveaxles when I got them. I've had them for 10,000 miles and the boots still look new. I have every confidence that the raxles will last just as long or longer than the oem driveaxles.

I've used Raxles stuff exclusively for a few years now. My driver's side axles is a Raxles unit and my passenger one will be when I finally get around to replacing it.

Excellent quality and excellent service, can't be beat.

I am happy with mines too, I had a sound when I accelerated, and thought maybe it was the axle loose when the mechanic did it. I was wrong, I forgor that i had changed the tire pressure from 44 to 35 which rides much better and you kinda hear and feel the road more. I am dang happy with my thangs!!! In time too, with all the snow in the New England area now.
