Axle reviews??

Post by New92 »

Replacing front CV axles on my 92 SS. What have you guys used and how well did it hold up? Thanks for the info.

I don't have a review for them but I hear CCR subaru engine rebuilders has good rebuilt subaru axles. I bought a couple but haven't used them. They look very nice though.

I guess it's actually a place called MW Enterprises that does them. But it's on the CCR engines site.

I'll second that cvaxles.com (constant velocity of Ocala) - that guy is pretty cool and the OEM rebuilds are really top notch.

Sweet, looks like they're in Ocala, FL that's like 30 minutes from me. I've been getting more worried about my CV axles breaking when I launch at the track, this looks like where I'll be getting mine custom built. You guys see that they have a page dedicated to Subaru under the racing section, it's not much but it's nice that he thanks the Subaru guys.

When I called them up I had a 20 minute conversation with the guy - all I ordered was a pair of OEM rebuilt CV's, but the guy loves subies. Was pretty refreshing to talk to a proprietor in detail like that. Also, I think you get a discount if you find the picture of the dog on the website, haha.

Anyway, I've had this set for 9 months, no issues at all.
