ok guys what are the rwhp ratings for the 01 31 spline axles and the 03/04 31 spline axles??? would they both be able to handle an eaton swap on our new edges??? any of you guys have the better axle for sale??? thanks
which axle is stronger?? 01 or 03/04???

out of the box 03-04.
Worked over they are all the same. If you can pick up a cheaper 01 and swap axles that would work.
Did that file work? Did you get my email?

Cool. Your best bet IMO would be just to rebuild yours.
New 31 spline diff and might as well do gears while you are in there. Then some 03-04 takeoff's or some aftermarket ones..
they will definitely handle a lot of abuse. i ran my stock 99 irs w/ my eaton for about 4 months. no problems at all. i think Double"O" (Kenne Bell) ran his stock 01 shafts for quite sometime(he may still be on them now).9blackcobra9 said:

ok well i already have the 4.30's thats why im lookin for the stronger 31 spline 03-04 carrier and axles. i want to be better safe then sorry
99-01 = 28 spline
03-04 = 31 spline
All the internals on the 03-04 are upgraded, including a 31 spline Differential/t-lock with carbon fiber clutches.
The 05-07 GT's also come with that same 31 spline diff (oh, and their axle shafts are 31 spline as well)
03-04 = 31 spline

ya thanks virtual i was about to say the same.....hey by the way what rpm did you have the 2 step set at and what tires were you running??? i have 295-35-18 kdw2's and its at 2500, any recommendation on launching it???t hanks

Cool, thanks for clarifying. :rockon:
Yeah Double O is still on the '01 shafts. Only the '99 shafts are 28 spline on the insde at the differential. The 01,03,&04 are all 31 spline at the differential. The 99,01,03,&04 are all 28 spline at the hub. Just a little info I learned that I did'nt know. Launch with a little slip and not pop the clutch and you'll do well.

wait jamie could you explain that again??? so what are the 01 03 04 on the inside at the diff???
The 99,01,03,04 are all 28 spline at the hub where your wheel goes. The '99 is 28 spline at the differential. The 01,03,04 is 31 spline at the differential. I could'nt believe that little bit of info when I found that out, but I guess it's true. Oh the '03 & '04 shafts are supposed to be stronger, that is all I have ever heard, but I have both set's of '03 & '01 shafts and I could'nt tell them apart other than knowing which shaft is which. One other item you will want is a '03-'04 Cobra brace, the '99-01 brace is not as good and you can tell a difference when you get the '03-04 brace in the car. Hope this helps.

which brace are you talking about???
#1.
I've had stock half-shafts since the car was new.
Wheel hop is the issue,
It really doesn't matter if you have stage 100 half-shafts.
Fix the IRS first.
Apex installed Derlin and other tough bushings.
That's the place to address first.
