They were but not now, we sold every axle that we have in work.
These axles have been selling like crazy and we've been selling 2-3 sets a day. We ran a batch last week but they are still in heat treat and everyone of them are pre-sold.
Were going to start another batch this week, this time we'll run a really big batch to keep ahead of the curve.
Thanks
Chris

My guess would be the simple, pay for a set ahead of time. Which for me is gonna have to wait. Gotta buy a airsoft gun... That stuff is addicting. One time and I wanna go every week.

hey everyone,
I'm new to the CTS-V world, just recently purchased a 2004 with 39K miles, but not new to racing. I have a 2001 Z06 that I've been running in ASP Auto-x events, drag racing and other forms of competition for the past 7 years. And all though I'm not clear on the geometry of the CTS-V, yet, I due know that under- valved or warn-out shocks and soft(er) springs causes wheel hop on launching or extreme wheel motion! So just something else to think about.
I have Penske doubles on the Vette and re-valve them every year. I've also had 3 different Spring rates in the rear. I have experienced wheel hop in the Vette under launching and attempt suspension tuning to get rid of it.
I'm looking into this wheel-hop issue with the CTS-V's and they may need some extra dampening or higher spring rate to control this. Just my opinion.
I may be completely wrong, I dunno? but conventional thinking and general knowledge of Suspension tuning makes me believe that under valved shocks and stock springs will cause this.
