Default building the rear

well i just picked up a pair of slicks not long ago and i dont know how long my rear will last so im going to build it within the next few weeks. i really have no clue what to get but 31 spline axles so if u guys could point me in the right directions i would appreciate it. i want something that will handle 6k launches on slicks all day.

Get a differential that's rebuild-able
You are gonna need your torque boxes welded too

Make sure you have axles that allow you to retain your ABS. i forget if those are the ones with the c clips or the eliminators. And get your torque boxes welded and reinforced too like said before.

I dont know of many places that sell 33 spline axles and differentials. And they are a lot more expensive for differentials.
