Anyone have Hellcat Axles and rear hubs laying around collecting dust?

So I have a 2018 HC reg body Challenger and the axles and rear hubs are likely shot. Looking for anyone that swapped out their OEMs before they beat the hell out of them and are tired of tripping over them in the garage and want to sell them. Figured Id ask here before trying to order and waiting all summer for them to come in.

Thanks
Jeff

Curious, why do you think they're shot? I learned something about axles in our cars that I haven't shared because I'm very shaky on how to validate it.

I am installing GTforce axles in my 21 RE this weekend and will be selling my stock axles.

Digging deep with that shovel..?. :unsure:;):p


We never did confirm this, but there was quite a bit of speculation on lowered Challengers blowing the boots on the half shafts, myself included going through two of them, several others seemed to as well.

Best of my knowledge, it faded away but unresolved...

I still have a hole in one of my boots, until it actually starts to fail, or at least make noise, I'm ignoring it.

I recall those threads--they ran pages and pages of discussion and spanned over a year. I don't recall there every being a resolution other than "lowering these cars is a bad idea".

I'm still on the Blue Mopars.

Either of you guys have your OEM RE drive shaft you want to sell?
