Default Factory five racing axles to be discontinued

Hi everyone, I just called and spoke to Amit At FFR (508-291-3443) to order just the standard length axles for my Ford 8.8 IRS conversion. He tells me they are out of stock and will not have them anymore. He did have 3 complete sets of axles with the CV's on them (complete axles set) which will also be discontinued. I purchased a complete set today and he has only two sets left. If you were looking to use there axles I would call him directly before he sells out.

IIRC, they get their axles from The Drive Shaft Shop. So does V8R. Just call DSS and get what you need directly from the builder.

I just got off the phone with Amit. He says they actually made them there. Whatever. I got a set coming, now someone needs to find another reasonably priced source. These were a bargain at $250.00 a set shipped.

Amit stated he has a buddy with an LS9 Miata running these axles.

Default The Drive Shaft Shop Prices

I got the same deal at FFR $125.00 US for a complete axle with CV's. Priced out at DSS and a set with outer porche Cv!s was $999.00 US and a 600 hp set with resplined Miata hubs was $1300.00 US. So I think this was a great deal at FFR

FFR is out of stock and will no longer make them. Their part number was 15508. From what I found DSS part # FAR1 is the same but double the money.
