Yes had these in my c5 worked good with only problem they leaked out the grease on the boots on both in no time was new.

I think I will try G FORCE on the c7 in a few months & it is cold weather now anyway. Plus need to save up some play money.

Man your car is crazy man nice ride. Robert

I went with DSS 1600+HP option for my setup too. 850whp now but planning on adding a bigger shot and stage 2. That should push it into the 8's.

We try to keep them in stock for these cars... but if we don't have them in stock I can always get them quickly! If anyone ever needs axles for their C5, C6, or C7 we will always have the best price and fastest ship time!

I broke the passenger side last year running on Toyo R888's with 1.60-1.61 short times, running 10.40's in my A8. The car was making about 660/640 at the time. This was launching off idle and flashing the converter. I actually bought 2 GM stock replacements as it took several weeks to receive it from GM, so I have a spare just in case. I'd rather break another one than damage the diff. They are shear pins IMO.

Buddy you don't know what a bump in is in that car.

I just got the RPM 3:42 with wavetrac & the E-FORCE axles in the car yesterday. Man these axles weight about 2 times what the stock one's do... Now to the tune of the car.. Robert
