I bought my new from a link that Notorious VR posted a bit ago. I think its Ractronix or something. Just didn't want to take a chance with garbage. I want to say it was the same price anyway.

Wheel hopped and snapped my drivers side half shaft.
Miserable night.
Drove the POS 70 miles home with one axle shaft. God that was miserable. Poor diff managed to get me about 2 miles from my house, then lost speed going up a hill and the diff wouldn't lock up enough to get the car going. Drove another car to the house, got a tow strap, and yanked the pile up the hill.

If anyone has a 95 M3 half shaft please LMK. Need one ASAP.
Are the 96+ axles different? That sucks dude.

Yes,
96+ have the "thickness" and will work.
I recall some thinking the meaty center would make them stronger
but regular failure point for turbo torque is elsewhere.
I may have a stock 95 kicking around

If I remember correctly, my non-M axle I recently broke at the drag strip snapped where the splines enter the outer CV joint. I'm interested to know where the M axles normally break.
The cages break inside the joints. The splines will not break on the M's

I dunno, I'm kind of enjoying my 7-10 psi after seeing all Raj has been through.

cant go wrong with that
advanced auto #78915 - 79.99
o...o...o... O'Reilly's #BM8051 - 137.99
both, Limited Lifetime Warranty
Not sure I trust Oreillys or advanced axles.
Has anyone actually used them on a car making 650+whp?
Warranty is fine, but I don't want to be replacing my axles all the time.
If anyone has a pair of 96+ M3 axles Ill take those as well.
LMK what yall got want something ASAP
