Axle for 8.8 rear end

5OH 2GO · 08-15-2003

Does anybody know of a company that sells replacement axles for the 8.8 rear end? I bent the passenger rear axle in my 1990 5OH, and I am having a hell of a time finding one that is reasonably priced. Please help. Thanks.

Thanks for the info. I am a wealth of knowledge wneh it comes to heads, cams, intakes, and electrical questions, but what is the difference between 28 spline axles, and 32 spline axles etc...???
Can I run any number of splines providing that the axle length is right? I have no clue about differentials.

If you have the stock diff you have to run 28 spline. All the splines refer to is the number of teeth on the end of the axle and the side gears of the diff. If you dont run sticky tires a lot you should be fine with 28 spline axles. I would look for some strange or moser 28 spline axles which will be stronger then the stock ones. I am in the process of ordering some 31 spline moser axles from wild rides for $215 but I dont know if they have 28 spline axles. You could give em a call and find out.
