    I have the 40th GTP coupe that needs both axles replaced because the boots spewed their grease and do their shake under acceleration. I read on here that a couple of you guys replaced them with Napa axles. How are the Duralast reman axles from autozone? Or is there any other brands you guys know that are good.

    I also looked at the ZZP stage 1 HD axles, are they worth it or nah?

    On the Napa website they have two different kind of axles according to the Important Info. One says "supplied w/ optional heavy duty." And the other type says "supplied w/ standard neoprene." Do you know which one of the two you got? I probably won't change them til early spring because its too dang cold in North Dakota right now so right now I'm just gathering options. Thanks for the quick reply by the way Scotty.
