What axles?

[venomracer]

Are the GT350 axles worth buying or just save up for the DSS ones?
Car is a ‘23 base 10R80 that will be going to the track soon. Just installed the Stop the hop starter kit and have a set of 17x10 rear wheels with the 305/45 MT’s. Has anyone broken those axles?

You spend your money how you see fit. From what I've read the 350 axles are slightly more robust than the stock units. If you're wanting to go something big, the FRPP or the DSS are the way to go.

TBH with your setup, if all otherwise stock, you're good

Yes it’s stock minus tires and suspension. Wheels get here tomorrow so I should be able to test at the track next Wednesday p

What kind of track? The 350 axles are solid the GT are hollow, so the shafts are stronger. The problem is the CV joint is the same.

If drag racing I'd go with the DSS or similar. Road racing the 350 axles should be fine. Ford engineered them for road tracks.

Should have mentioned drag racing.

Ford Performance shafts

Should have mentioned drag racing.

Ford Performance or GForce axles. GForce makes both. I have the FP axles and love them. With drag radials, your A10 should even be a lot easier on them than a manual.

I don’t know whether or not the Bullitt has GT350 axles, but here is a comparison of my factory axles with the FP axles.

That’s quite a difference. I think I’m going to skip the green 350 axles and just save for the best ones.

if youre doing any kind of drag racing or hard hits the gt350 just dont hold up./ i see it all the tie guys get them thinking they are better just because they say gt350. gt350 was not designed for drag racing. best bet is to save up and buy a pair of dss or gforce and be done with it and not have to worry.
