What axle?

So I need to replace my axle because they are shot but my question is what axle brand should i go with???

I searched and read a bit but honestly their is just too my threads and dont feel like reading thru each one

I know everyone is saying to not go with GSP because they are crap.
I found 3 from my local parts shop
Duralast = $57.99+10 core
Fenco (Remanufactured) = $59.99+20 core
EMPI =$59.85

What should i go with? What is everyone using as replacements?

BTW I'm and lowered on tein h-tech

I got NAPA axles.
I'm lowered with Tein S-tech. Its being like 6 months with them and no issues. Comes with 3 year warranty. Got them for like $70 with tax (each).

Neither of those, http://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/200..._assembly.html

Scroll down to the new A1Cardone for $44.85, I've had them for over a year and I'm lowered, no problems...

There have been posts by people saying that the GSP brand is one you should avoid.
