Hey guys, I am going to be replacing my axles pretty soon and I was wondering what most of you have done, and are you happy with them. I was thinking about getting raxles, because they are new, not refurbished, but at the same time it would cost $270 for both axles. Thanks.

 

they priced me at 308$ for both..

it sucks.. but i belive they have a good warranty don't they?

 

i would do raxles, i replaced mine with raxle axles and they have been great. had them over a year, maybe two cant remember.

 

i saw this in a turbo magazine

www.driveshaftshop.com

they do hi hp/tq applications and actually have one for the maximas

I bet those are a pretty penny, thanks for the suggestion though.

 

i just recieved my axles from raxles.com.... great service, great delivery time, and as far as i can tell the only problem is core..(u send them your old axles in the packaging they sent the new ones in.. they even give u the shipping label included free.. there warranty is good also...
Can't wait to put them on!!

 

Are raxles axles new or refurbished?

i got new ones from drivewire, after core theyre only like 65-75 per side

 

i got axles from parts houses they have worked fine for me. not had a problem yet. at 50-70 a pop im not to worried about anything more.

 

good point, I just don't want to get stuck with poor replacements that I will be replacing again in a couple of years or so. Are the ones you got new or refurbished? I am kinda hesitant about going refurbished.

 

Try reading Nick, it helps.

 

NmexMAX.. I did read that, I guess I should have been more clear.. Are raxles axles really new? I was always under the impression that they were refurbished.

I put new axles on my GTI over the winter that I got from driveshaftshop.com and they appear to be quality. They were pretty inexpensive too.

 

raxles Are New

 

The axles from driveshaftshop.com are way expensive for the maxima.

 

they are a lot cheaper than stock replacements from nissan, but who buys those anyway?

I was mis-informed and thought you were boosted

 

nah, i wish... hopefully some day.

 

sry for being somewhat OT but I replace my passenger side axle last week and now I have tranny fluid leaking from that side, I'm thinking is axle/differential seal got damage from me waiting so long to change out the axle. I read in the FSM that theres a puller for the seal, where can I get that or do I even need it to replace the seal?

 

that seal should always be replaced whenever you change axles. However if you do not install it carefully you will keep getting leaks

 

I would of replaced it but I didn't do the work myself. Looks like I may have fix it myself now since it wasn't done. Any special tool needed to pull or install the seal?

 

And I still managed to twist one..
