SS hub bearings. I was originally going to go with 1LE axles and hubs but after reading through a LOT of threads I think the regular SS axles might actually be better for drag racing. I just seem to read alot of threads about 1LEs breaking axles or having the boots slinging grease. I've also heard that GM made the 1LE axles a little too stiff and that's why they are breaking.

Rick seemed to have good luck with his stock SS rear, lasted for over 300 nitrous passes with hard launches and many more NA passes. Pro Stock John also raced for 3 years on his stock SS rear diff and axles before braking the spiders. Plus it's about $50 cheaper than the 1LE axles and hubs of going with new parts.
