Replacing axles, what else should I look at? 850 1994

The stock axle nuts use a 36mm socket, most of the aftermarket replacements use a 32mm socket.

I hope you aren't buying the junk Chinese, $79.00, FEQ axles from FCP. If they even fit at all in the first place they fail again within 6 months. FCP also sells EMPI brand axles that are actually OK.

If you want the best I have never heard of a complaint about axles from www.raxles.com.

It is always a good opportunity to check you ball joints, ties rod ends, and sway bar links while you are in the area.
