Default 2010 Camaro 1000HP Rear axles

2010 Camaro 1000HP Rear axles $1850.00/pair

Description:The Level 5 axles for the new Camaro SS are designed to handle up to 1000HP. Using chromoly center bars, 108mm Porsche-style CV's and bolt-on chromoly inner and outer stubs, these are a direct bolt-on that fit the stock hubs and come complete with all the necessary hardware. Not only will these axles handle the horsepower, and the different diameter chromoly axle bars on each side will eliminate wheelhop.

Wheelhop at launch which can be extremely damaging to the drivetrain and makes getting traction very difficult. The factory Camaro axles are made with different diameter axle bars, but the spline diameter is the same on both sides.

This has seen this before on stock axles such as those found in the Mustang Cobra, where the large diameter axle bar will taper down to a spline that is half the diameter.

This transition creates a weak point on the axle bar that cannot withstand increased horsepower. These axles are made with 1-1/8” & 1-3/8” diameter bars that are splined on the full diameter of the bar, without being tapered down so drastically and creating a weak point.

These axles are priced as a set and have a 1-year warranty.

Stefano,

If you have any trouble with your axles/CVs after they have been put through the paces let me know. I have LOTS of experience with the chromoly axles and CVs. I have actually twisted a few of those alxes but on a road race car with 750hp and 14 1/2 Goodyear slicks outback.

In case you don't know , CVs love Krytox ..... just don't get it on your hands

Sure we can do that, but what are you trying to accomplish?

We are already using Porsche CVs, good to 1,000hp at the wheels, from what the engineers have told us. Are you going for more?

We put a Super Charger with 15 pounds of boost on Tom's 427 Yenko and got over 1,000 hp at the wheels, broke everything but the CVs.

If I was going for more than a 1000 I would just use a set of my Titanium axles
