Is the GT350 left side axle the same as the GT?

It’s different but not appreciably stronger. The CV joint is a failure mode and the gt350 cv joint is the same size.

I would be careful about buying a used or take-off GT350 half shaft. I have seen a fair number that leak CV grease from the factory due to a bad seal. I had mine replaced under warranty.

I can always replace the grease and put a new clamp on it.
Honestly it only needs to last till Feb or so when I will get some real axles.
The stock GT axles are hollow. :crazy:

Are the 350 axles also hollow?

@K4fxd are you getting into drag racing? What was the cause of your broken axle and what will you be switching to in February?

Too much abuse I guess. My car hooks so no wheel hop.

Not sure what I'll put in, I'll see what Terry has and go from there.
