I think its a good time to buy axles for my car. Found out the hard way that the stock axles weren't gonna live with the spool. Just bought new wheels so I thought that 5/8 studs might be a good investment, too. Any advice on manufacturer's? Any good deals to be had? The rearend is a stock-length 8 3/4 in a 66 Dodge coronet wagon. Tame 440, no trans brake 727, 10-5 radial slicks, runs 12's....

Thanks in advance.
Matt

I picked up a set of Dutchman axles from Dr Diff here
on the board... they're going in my 9" in my Rampage...
should be a 10.0 car... but its a street rod... I just
went with good 1/2" studs
