DSS don't suck, you just can't try to go over their rated capacity. You can't put Stage 0's on a 600whp car on slicks and expect it to last. I'm going to have to step up to their 3.9's pretty soon I'm afraid. When I bought the Stage 0 swap axles I wasn't planning on a turbo yet. It kinda happened that I had some nifty parts sitting in the garage and a K20... shit happens lolol.

in your opinion how good are the level 0s? I only have a stock H22 with bolt ons I am just tires of swapping axles every few months. only reason O keep em now is the lifetime warranty. they usually seem to break when I am broke too lol.

agreed...my dss stuff has held up flawlessly to countless 1.5 60's in my 3600lb turd....

I think the Stage 2 comment was sarcasm


I have DSS Stage 0 in my civic currently with no problems, but a K-swap is a lot lot harder on axles than most because of the terrible angle that it puts them at. I am well over what they are rated at, but I havent tried slicks and launching on them yet either. In your application I would just rock some Advance or Autozone axles (new not refurbished) that have the lifetime warranty on them. The Stage 0 DSS axles have no warranty on them at all that I'm aware of, and the stronger models would be cost prohibitive in your case. With a mostly stock swap there would be no benefit to having $1000+ axles. The stronger DSS axles still only carry a 1 year warranty anyways, but I'm going to go to a set of 3.9's when the ones I have now break, since they are rated to 600whp and upgrade the hubs to 36mm units that are made from a much stronger material.

[h22 jones]

I think he was referring to me breaking 400hp axles with 250 hp but i take full responsablity no preload i was sick as hell. I just realy didnt thank the drag radials was gonna hook up anyway but it was my fault period. I have ran in the 12s for years (yea i know like thats fast lol sorry thats all i can do) on advance or any axles i could fine for that matter with no problem you just have to preload and if you dont know how ask somebody or you will be buying axles. Hell i launched my accord (weighing 3000 pounds ) 7500 on slicks getting 1.78 sixty foot times with no issues with advance axles.

[vtecace23]

I've been using stock axles for years, most have been refurbished ones from advanced auto. Been running low elevens and high tens for the past three years on stock axles and have broken 1 on the track and that was due to a broken motor mount. Preloading is the key in a fwd when launching on slicks, once you learn how to do that it takes a ton of stress off drivetrain. If youre breaking axles with a stock swap, youre obviously doin it wrong.

[preferredduck]

bad motor mounts eat axles for sure. dont get the refurb at advance, buy the new wit hthe warranty and copy the receipt or it will fade.
