I've had problems w/ vibration under firm/heavy acceleration for almost 2 Yrs on my 94EX. I've replaced both front axles twice (warranty replacement of AZ axles) w/o any change in vibration. Recently it seemed to be worse and I noticed that one axle (RH) was clicking on hard turns.

I decided to go another route and try Raxles. I had noticed glowing testimonials from several posters on different forums.

I order the LF axle first as this is longest axle and I knew the installed axle did not have the vibration dampner installed. It cost my $220 for the axle. Raxles would not accept my AZ axle for a core credit (more on that later). I installed the axle a couple of weeks ago and immediately noticed a significant improvement, but not completely fixed. Still some vibration and RH axle was clicking.

I ordered the LH axle and installed today.

I think its significant that both Raxles came w/ vibration dampners and neither of the AZ axles had them.

What a sweet feeling to drive my Accord again w/o vibration. It was great! Like recovering completely from a long illness.

I decided to try and return my axles to AZ to see if they would provide a refund. They advised that I could not get a refund, but could get a store credit (like a gift card). This was a better deal than a core return to Raxles since you pay shipping charges of about $20/axle.

After all the axle swapping and frustration, I'm ready to declare that most auto parts axles are not worth your time. I can't speak for all, but AZ and O'Reillys sell similar parts. I've heard some good things about Napa axles, but have no experience w/ them.

What I can say is Raxles are good, and cost about twice as much as AZ, et al. They are a bargain if you value your time. They also offer a lifetime warranty, which I hope never to use.

Regards

 

Are Raxles rebuilt CV joints, or are they new ones? Where do you order them from?

 

Axles are new per website.

raxles.com is website.

good luck
