94GPGTP Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Well which sucks both outer axle boots are torn on both axles.. I dont plan on using them like this in my TGP so i just ordered 2 inner and 2 outer boot kits to rebuilt my axles.. Its getting hard to find these things without putting a hole in your walet.. So Just wondering who has rebuilt them and what to look for.. Quote
Crazy K Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 I had one that needs rebuilt. I plan to cheat. I will be dismantling another uneeded axle and swapping it's ends onto my bad 282 shaft, grease and all. Quote
94GPGTP Posted March 25, 2009 Author Report Posted March 25, 2009 Unneeded axle as in a auto axle or manual axle? I want to fin the differences between them also cuz I have lots of auto ones Quote
intern8tion9l Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 a whole new axle is like $60 with the core Quote
intern8tion9l Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 no i've never gotten any online. i always find them local....gotten them upsate ny and long island. i just look through the phone book in the auto parts section and call numbers till i find somethin Quote
GOT2B GM Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 NAPA had lifetime warranty axles, I know Jeff was taking advantage of that with his 284 axle snapping TGP Quote
94GPGTP Posted March 28, 2009 Author Report Posted March 28, 2009 well i am rebuilding them and i got all the parts in today to rebuild them the new boots, grease, and clamps.. Ill run these for now until i have problems with them.. ill check my napa first if cheap enough ill buy them for spare.. Quote
1990lumina Posted March 28, 2009 Report Posted March 28, 2009 Try this site too: http://www.raxles.com/default.aspx You might have to call them with what you want - but they get good reviews on my Millenia forum and are one of the only axles that haven't failed on Millenias after replacement. Quote
slick Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 I think I paid $75 for a brand new axle for me Bonneville. They are suprisingly cheap. Just as said above, call around the part stores and find one. Quote
94GPGTP Posted April 2, 2009 Author Report Posted April 2, 2009 the carquest engine shop my tgp engine is being rebuilt at has both side for 75 each.. asked them if there is a waranty and he asked as in? i told im if they snap.. he told me no.. I raised hell in there stating a waranty is a waranty and if i bring them back in any period of time they should be covered and i can get new ones.. He didnt say much after that and i was done talking to him.. I left.. IM going to rebuild these and buy new/refurb ones for spares.. Quote
