EXT : CV Axles

[spade]

Anybody know if the tasauto axles are any good?

[LadyG]

I have never heard of tasauto.

But when it comes to premium axles there is something you should keep in mind.
How do you drive?
I am an aggressive corner-er, I hate to brake, I downshift to slow down into a corner. I will not spend more than necessary for axles, because I expect to change them yearly.

There are better things to buy with that money than CV axles.

huh?

you'r easier way to remove ball joints is what has been getting discussed here lol

I have never heard of tasauto.

really? even with the huge banner on top of the forum lol


i don't know about TAS' axles, i bought mine brand new from kragen/o'rilley for $70 a pop

[LadyG]

LOL, I guess I just never noticed it!

Yeah, 70 is about average. (after core refund)
I just wouldn't spend 100+ for an axle... But to be fair, I have never priced axles outside of a parts store environment.

Lol I'm not an aggresive driver but do hav my moments, they have them for 70$ new each side no core refund, its just been clickin/shutterin when I turn left or hit a bump n I feel it on my steering wheel or even when I brake hard. So I wanna get both axles n plan to use this

kragen doesn't have a core charge for the new ones, only for the reman's
i re-built my old ones and sold em on craigslist lol

I emailed tasauto, they said ther axles are made by "A1 Cardone" O_o

[LadyG]

bump for usability.

[LadyG]

I've been seeing a lot of bad CV axle threads! Bump for viewing!

[LadyG]

Bump to ensure Noobs can Yoose.

[LadyG]

2 month bump. lol

2 month bump. lol

Getting ready to attempt this tomorrow into the weekend.

Axle has movement in it while i was looking for loose/damaged components.

55 a piece for both axles. Since the passenger side isn't loose at all i figured the driver side was bad. Also when i turn i hear a clunk from both passenger and driver side.

This diy is awesome compared to the haynes.... Hopefully everything goes ok.

They are made from EMPI? Brand new. Not Remans.

Nice diy.......I did mine not long ago with my friend. Everything came out ok but after that I noticed that my steering wheel would shake when going between 50-70 mph specially on the freeway it shakes too much, so I check under the car and both axles aren't all the way in on the tranny or wherever it goes by like 1/8 and I hammered it all I could to put them in, what can I do to fix that problem

Thank you! I am so glad this has been helpful to others.

Just a thought, but is it possible you could have put them on the wrong sides?
Each side is different, and if both axles are not flush in their places it is a possibility.
