Phastek installation of DSS 1000HP axles
Here are some pics of the DSS 1000HP rated axles we recently installed.
Just after removing the tires lol ![]() Pic of the stock axle before removing ![]() Pic of the front side after removing the caliper and securing it away ![]() Remove the bolts holding the lower and upper control arms and tie bar and trailing arm. although in the picture the bottom strut bolt is removed it isn't neccessary ![]() Remove the knuckle normally it's best to remove the rear brake cable. In our case, we lowered the car on the rack and supported the knuckle assembly ![]() Remove the stock axle ![]() ![]() Difference between the two axles stock and DSS ![]() ![]() Install in the reverse order of the above and you get ![]() Rinse, wash, and repeat for the other side and completed project and added peace of mind that you now have axles that can handle the added HP of a forced induction setup or all motor setup

Just Installed my DSS 1000hp axles today and I have a question.
Probably nothing but I noticed the stepped edge, I pointed out with an arrow,does not go into the dust seal like the factory axles.The Oil seal is good to go....Maybe because they are intended to be "RACE" only?Seems like a good place for water and junk to collect. They are seated all the way and it seems they should.Anybody else notice this or am I missing something here?

I may have answered my own question...This pic is of the 1400hp axles. See how the area I pointed to on the 1000hp axles is not designed to ride on a seal...at least that is what I'm seeing.

Thanks Man for answering my question. It just looked like it could from the machined diameter. My axles are good...no leaks either!
