I just talk to a guy from the Drivshaft shop They have Stage Two axles for the Contour and Cougar that are Good for 325 HP. Here's a link to the page Driveshaft shop
He said He would do a group buy on them. 10% Of Ten sets and 15% of 15 sets.They are normally $599 plus shipping. If anybody Interested they can PM Billy "Slimshady" I don't check the Board often so Billy can handle It.Shipping for the Axles is about $30.00.If you have any questions you can email the driveshaft shop driveshaftshop@hotmail.com

just 2 total for the front. that is where all the power is going. these would go really nicely with a LSD.

This is loong into the future for me but... Will these work for both the ATX and the MTX?

Just wondering,

$599 a piece or a set?

[EDIT] Nevermind! I saw it, it's for the set. I'm interested. But can't do anything until at least June.[/EDIT]

I've got a set on my car, the stage 3 though, rated 450+. Good fitment and excellent quality and workmanship. Well worth the money, as they are not really much over stock prices. No, they wont fit on an ATX equipped car.

Got a set on mine as well and they are awsome, well built and worry free

If I follow through with my plan, I'll NEED stage III axle at least.

did u have the stage 3 custom made then? since they only list stage 2
Posted By: Shaggy_dup1 Re: Stage 2 Axles - 01/08/03 03:50 AM
I don't think so, since Rick has them as well. You just need to call them and get the full deal.

Shaggy when did you get yours? AFAIK I had the only set when he first made them because I had to send in my hub for him to copy. This time around he just machined them with standard splines to fit the stock hub.

Why did he make a custom hub for you last time? Was it because the stock hub cannot handle the torque? I want to know because IIRC yours stripped after they made you a set?

Hmm, a long time ago, maybe close to 1.5 - 2 years ago. I was the third Contour owner to get a set, David Z., person 2 (he asked me not to divulge his identity) and myself.
Posted By: Buckshot77_dup1 Re: Stage 2 Axles - 01/11/03 03:03 AM
The custom hub was due to the end he wanted to use on mine not being available in a spline pattern that worked with the stock set so it was easier at the time to make custom hubs than new splines for the ends.
