Default Axles
Ok i want to buy a stronger axle for my car but i have gears already. and i dont want to change my whole differential. is there a kit i can buy that i wont need to change it? one that just bolts up. and i can put a stronger differential cover on it.

are 28 spline axles strong enough for a 450-500 hp car launching on slicks?

500 horse with slicks? thats a lot of stress on those poor axles, i would think about the 31 spline and the new diff
