    Default F23 axels

    So as I'm debating about where my $ should go next into my build, I am accutely aware of the miniscule size of my axels. I also don't seem to read about them going like on the the lsj's, but not nearly as many f23 cars actually have power lol. So any ideas suggestions to keep me from tow hooks this summer? Ive heard people say switch to lnf, but I assume that would be alot of work. DSS sells 400hp axels for $800 large? Keep stock? I belive the 2 10ish cavi's at CED were still running stock axels, could be wrong.

    run OEM stock axles that makes them the weak point easier to break them than the trans...my .02 c.
    no LNF OR LSJ axles wont fit and would cost a lot of money to custom make so forget that nonsense.

    I've thought about this too from time to time.. then I remember that the f23 axles have put up with alot of punishment in stock form over the years so i just pray mine never snap.. zzp launched on slicks on their auto car (idk if their axles are different) and ran a 11.4 which is pretty good for a stock axle

    some go fast mods i whistle and sneeze now
