pearlm30 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I am looking to buy a set of axle. There are these 2 companies. Any advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 some members of xt6.net posted very recently issues of leaking grease and other issue from cvaxle.com, i'd avoid them. i would choose MWE...he has 4 of my axles as we speak.

DerFahrer Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Who's MWE? I'm looking for a new CV axle vendor myself. I'm one who has had troubles with cvaxles.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 they rebuild subaru axles and have an excellent reputation. there is a link to them through the CCR website. do an internet search for MWE axles and they'll come up. they have also posted their information here on USMB. he just finished 4 for me today. here's the USMB link: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=49775&highlight=marshall he now has XT6 axles in stock and ready to go.

ccrinc Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 FWIW, I won't use any axles but Marshall's on my own Subarus.

DerFahrer Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Very, very good to know. They'll likely see my business in the next few months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearlm30 Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 Got a price quote from MWE. $75 per axle plus core charge and shipping $60 for both axles. Very close to OEM rebuild. Does MWE offer any discount for members here? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Just a good guy who happens to be in our building.) FREAK!!!! i was 7 miles from you guys, had i known that i would have stopped by when i was there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and you all do know that Subaru's axle reman program has been completely shut down at one point and now only rebuilds axles for certain types of Subarus, right?

idosubaru Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 the free shipping to USMB members was a temporary promotion that has now expired, the date is on the same page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerFahrer Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Poo. Oh well, as long as they're good axles, it's worth it. Lifetime warranty or not, it's a pain replacing cheap crappy axles over and over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
