    How can you comment on something that has no merit... Also what I do with my business is none of your business.. You need to rebuild your own shafts.. I offered you the parts, so what's your problem? You need not reply. Unless your interested in spending some money..

      My guess is if my rebuilt shafts prove to be defective, and I m not saying they are, that he would make it right.

      Thanks Mike, the maturity level and logic is beyond belief..
      By the way your shafts were rebuilt and are already sold, thanks

        Post pics of your "rebuild" process. You cannot get parts to rebuild the joints in these axles. Therefore it is obvious that you are repainting and rebooting 20 year old axles. That is not a rebuild. Anyone can buy a boot kit and grease for 30 bucks and do what you do. Not only are you falsely advertising these as rebuilt, you are also charging 400 bucks for the service.

        If that is not true, post some pics and I will retract my statements. Im just looking out for the community and cant see how raxles can't get parts, but you can...

        The logical thing to do would be to explain your rebuild process.

        If you went to a restaurant and asked what was in their hamburger what response would you like:

        A: The waiter calls you immature, insults you and never explains the quality of the food.

        B: The waiter explains the kind of meat and offers you a sample.


        Obviously, you would want the waiter to do B and if it was good, you would buy the food. IF he gave you A you would obviously know there is something amiss and leave. I dont understand how that though process is illogical or immature.

          barry, no one is going to purchase your product if you do not post pics of said rebuild. I think everyone wouold feel a lot more comfortable buying your product with pictures of you rebuilding them. glws

            Actually, it is our business because we are your market. What kind of logic is it to alienate your ONLY market by posting crap like this?

            Bad business mentality. Also, until said pics are posted, bad product.

              I was looking into buying axles from barry close to a year ago and asked for pictures of the rebuilding process then. I never got them so i never bought them.

                I saw this ad locally on the craigslist earlier this year. It seemed really fishy to me at the time that someone had in such large quantity these rebuilt, new looking axles.

                Realistically, the specifications of the bearings within the joint could be determined and matched with some from another kit, or just other general parts. But, CV joint rebuild kits come with a cage and race replacement. Unless the OP has a hook up to get these assembly the manufacturer, this has to be bogus if sold as rebuilt.

                Equal rights should be all or nothing, not picked and chosen based on what's convenient for ones personal agenda.

                  Im not defending the OP but axles really arent all that complicated. Im sure that the parts required are interchangeable between other makes/models. Any local axle/cv joint shop could get the parts to rebuild them for cheap so I doubt for the sellers asking price that he is just re-greasing and rebooting them. At least I hope not.

                    Raxles, CV Axles for ALL front-wheel-drive cars, All featuring NEW outer joints and a lifetime warranty!


                    This is Raxles. They are a huge provider of rebuilt/strengthened axles. They have the buying power and marketing to get the parts for whatever they need. They are unable to secure quality rebuild parts and have stopped rebuilding them. If this giant company with years of experience cant get parts, how do you think some random guy can.

                      If no parts are available, how are auto parts stores offering remanufactured axles for such a low cost? I'm not trying to argue about it as I have no first hand expirience in sourcing the parts. I'm just sugguesting that their is likely a chance that your local axle rebuilder can mix and match parts to get the job done.

                          They dont. Cardone (one of the largest axle "rebuilders") just reboots theirs. Thats why they have such a high failure rate. The best deal is china axles at 60 bucks a pop, not anything labeled as rebuilt.

                          EVEN IF he was rebuilding them with parts that he got through some Asian supplier, it wouldn't be worth it because you might as well buy entirely new axles for 60 each.

                            All of this negativity and all just speculation. If you don't want to buy them - DON'T.

                              You seem to know what your talking about so ill take your word for it. Either way, I thought the op's price was a bit high especially if full details about the rebuilt aren't disclosed or avoided.

                                It sucks for whoever bought these axles. Would have been better off buying napa ones
