so you plan on replacing your 28 spline stocks with an after market 28 spline upgrade. this will be fine?

^these are non-tapper and stronger the stock, would these be ok for 1 track visit per two week max on slicks launching generally hard?

that size are the v6 rims 16x8? that will fit a 11.5 inch wide slick on it? (new to slicks and axle upgrades too)

buying 28 spline axles seems like a waste of money...i thought he was saying he was getting 31 spline axles and a frpp diff?

I'm not positive cuz I didn't do mine, but I'd imagine your gears will have to be shimmed again with the new LSD and axles in place.

Yeah i wouldnt go with 28s. If im gonna build it up i only wanna do it once. So im gonna go with 31s and an LSD.

Oh and the v6 rims are either 16x8 or 15x7 i believe.
