  • Axle pricing.

    Ok guys I'm looking for a set of good axles for the Festy, mine have made some pretty bad popping noises since I've owned the car and I think it's time to take care of it.
    In your opinion, should I just buy new or would you recommend finding used ones from a member? I feel that for the money I should just snag a pair of new ones and not have to worry about it for a while!
    My last question is where do you think I could get a set for a great price, I've checked eBay but the only pairs on there for sale are for an automatic trans. Thanks in advance for all the advice!!!

          It's a China brand Name, all you have to ask for is new axle's for your Festiva and that's what you will get. They come in a blue box with the GSP in white letters.

              That's what I use in all my builds and my daily driver. I've never had an issue with them and they've been in my DD since 08 with some hard miles on them

                    You can get the new GSP's for $50 if you have or know someone with a commercial account

                        Get a tax ID number and get an account. It's pretty easy and well worth it

                              Yeah but if get a commercial your discount is factored by how much you spend monthly.
                              So no buy for few months it be normal price as a walk in customer.

                              If cheaper at auto zone get the warranty info if it is a lifetime advance will match their price. I have to do it all the time at work and they will call to verify it and or need proof that it is the same and cheaper.
