Default looking for tougher axels

Can anybody tell me a Brisbane company that sells billet axels? or an equivalent. I snapped another axel last week and im sick to death of replacing em.

Thanks

Pat.

I've got a minispooled 25 spline diff so they just wear out and snap whenever. A 28 spline wouldnt be much better if i were to use standard axels... hence me wanting to know if anyone from brissy sells aftermarket axels that can take some punishment.

I will second that. the 28 spline axels are heaps bigger. At a guess i would say about 50% stronger. Well worth upgrading to. I to have twisted 3 pairs of 25 spline axels in my escort. Im going to go 28 splines next.

EL will have 28 spline. 25 splines was from EA-EB1.

Sick to death of replacing axles? Get rid of the bloody spool then.
