Built on Quality and Reliability
Endurance racing a FWD car comes with it's own set of unique challenges, however one would never consider how frustrating it also would be to deal with the myriad of poorly manufactured axles, all of which would fail and or break in no time flat under the duress of an 18 hour race. After finally ruining the 10th or so Axle, and spending good money on aftermarket grease, we decided to give the Jetta one last 'go around' with a custom set of Raxles for our MK4 Jetta. With the porsche style inner CV, and the larger new r32 outer axle, we were finally able to put an axle under the car that lasted a full day of practice, and then two 9 hour races. Because of this, we also placed FIRST overall for the weekend in class, something we've been close to doing, but never quite achieved. Thanks again for the excellent product, we can't promote your business enough. EVERYONE who runs with American Endurance Racing knows the string of bad luck with the Krabby Kraut, and EVERYONE is happy to see it back up front in the fast growing new series!

Marty,
I received your axle on Tuesday night and installed it last night. I have to say that I am blown away by the quality of this product. When I first opened the box and picked up the axle I was surprised by how beefy it is compared to the blown out axle. The workmanship on this thing is excellent, the install went without any snags and I got the entire job done in just over an hour. If anyone is skeptical about ordering an axle from Raxles, don't be, this is grade A quality work from a man who knows his stuff, and very obviously puts his heart in to each and every one of his products. 10/10 would Raxle again!

Marty,
It was such a pleasure finding out about you back in 94 or 95. Up until then we could not find a decent supplier for remanufactured axles. I can't recall how many times we but a cheap remanufactured axle in a car only to have the customer return with a vibration or a noise that was caused by the cheap junk we were buying. In the 11 years or so we've been dealing with you, we've never had a warranty issue with your products. Although sales have slowed (we've replaced all the axles in the area I think), we will continue using you and your staff.

I had a great buying experience with Raxles Inc. I want to express that they have a very friendly customer service and sent me the exact perfect match axles for my Volvo V40 vehicle at only at the fraction of the cost of what the Volvo dealer will charge me. Also as soon as I received I sent back the old ones in the same shipping container with a prepaid label and when Raxles Inc. received the old ones they sent me an email informing me of the status of my account and that I was clear of the core charge... Great communication and peace of mind!... I installed them and drove the car from Hinesville, GA to Miami and back... so far all I hear is compliments from my wife... "Oh honey the car is so smooth" I will recommend Raxles to anyone who wants nothing but high quality product, smooth transaction and nothing less than 100% satisfaction.
Thank you,

I should mention that I thought your service was excellent from start to finish. The axles installed easily and perfectly with no disappointments, and have performed equally well. The packaging and prepaid UPS return label made it very easy to get the cores back to you. The link on your installation page to the dsm cv joint faq was exactly what I needed to get through the installation (My $100 service manual for my 3000GT was not worth the paper it's printed on).I'm a Raxles fan now... :) I just wish I had more front wheel drive cars to work on. That was fun !
Best regards,

Hi Marty,
I wanted to thank you for the quality job you did on that axle! Not to mention the quick shipping time. Just to let you know, I've been putting in a good word for you on the CRX board at - probably the #1 site that ZC transplanters go to for advice. Hopefully I can send some more business your way. I have yet to see mention of the issue about the bearings going unprotected when using the Integra axles, and I've brought that information out. I imagine many people are like me and if they know it BEFORE THEY START, they'll come to you to begin with to get the extra quality and security.
Thanks again,
Erik D.
What a class operation, Mardi is super helpful and provided me with the confidence that I needed to install the front right axle in my son's 98 Nissan Altima SE. I am a retired High School Principal, that many moons ago enjoyed being a Saturday mechanic. After about 15 year lay-off from mechanics, I was forced into installing this high quality axle, when my repair shop refused to "professionally" install this part. I supposed his profit margin was not as great when not selling his rebuilt front right axle. The job was a relatively easy, with the help of Mardi's excellent web site. The photos from the Mitsubishi install were clear and close enough to apply to my Altima install without referring to any Nissan shop manuals which I do not own. I will continue to do business with Mardi & Raxles and would recommend his company to everyone I know. My only regret is that I didn't use my new Olympus -C8080 digital camera to record the event so a Nissan installation could be posted on Raxles's website. However, I can't wait for the left axle to need replacement. A Happy Saturday mechanic, that now has six other days to mess around,

Hi Marty,
I've got to say this was an excellent customer experience, from pre-sales questions through to return. I'm very impressed and glad I found you. I can imagine some of the alternatives from the blogs, if I hadn't looked around for a bit before purchasing. I don't hope to do too much business with you (for obvious reasons) but you're my first stop next time I need to do this. I'll also spread the word. Again, very good customer service, product, etc. I'll check out your testimonials page when I get a chance.
Best regards,

Hi Marty,
Thank you again for everything. The entire experience of ordering from your company is top notch! Inclusion of all necessary hardware makes the job just that much easier. I don't know why anyone would order from anyone else. I have already recommended your company to others on audiworld.com... and will continue to do so!
Thanks again!

The motor is in the car, the new axles are in the car, and the core axles are on their way back to you. I used your prepaid UPS label so expect them toward the middle of next week. Sorry for the delay, but I greatly appreciate your patience and understanding. I won't hesitate to recommend you to any of my racing buddies looking for replacement axles.
Thanks again.

I had to get my CV joint replaced today--this was a GREAT site to help me know what they had done!
Your site is fun and informative and loads quickly.
Thanks,

To all ~ I just wanted to comment that I am very pleased with the quality of your axles with packaging and service to match. I have a small home auto business and will certainly recommend your axles to any of my customers needing replacements. The axles I purchased were for my personal Honda and they have restored that like new smoothness and pleasure to my drives.
Yours Truly,

Marty,
I should pass along the praise/endorsement from the mechanic who installed them for me, he is a GM certified mechanic who now runs his own business. He commented that these are some of the best replacement axles he has EVER installed, much better quality than what he gets from N*P*. Made me feel good about my choice of parts!

Hi Marty,
I just got the axles delivered today and could tell an immediate difference in the amount of slop/play between yours and these other rebuilt axles! These other axles had a lot of play compared to yours which had absolutely none. I got them installed, but will have to wait a few days before I can do a test drive as I have another unrelated part to replace and will let you know how it goes. (I'll get the cores out to you Thursday.) I do expect that this will fix the cyclic vibration problem. I take it that a good sign of worn out joints is excessive play between the drive shaft and the joints themselves.

Hi Marty,
Thank you for your super product and super service. I wish I had found you before I got my last set of remanufactured axles that seemed to make noises from Day 1. I know why I saw so many nice things about your raxles on the net. My mechanic said they were the best he's ever seen. Thank you for a great product at a great price.
