    Hey guys I'm needing to buy At least one new axle soon and I'm wondering what the best one is. I know zzp has their high performance ones but I've read a lot of bad reviews on them. So would a oe replacement be better and can they handle 400whp?

    DO NOT go with the APWI for the driver's side. Passenger side seems fine. Driver's side is too short. Same for the one from autozone. Ended up going with a low mileage oem axle.

    Thanks for the heads up man! Most people know but for those that don't I should probably mention I'm topswapped so I have non HD axles

    NAPA reman's. GM tech buddy of mine told me they re-use stock GM axles when they rebuild them. I have two on mine and they work great.
