Default best cost effective axle solution for gen 1 v?

Is there anyone who makes replacement axles that don't harm the factory dif or cause increased wear where the axles connect to the dif? i've heard that is a problem with some aftermarket axles. anyone else hear or know about this?

If you get just the axle shafts that utilize the stock CV joints there should be 0 issues as this is the same mating to the differential. Even the "1000hp" axles with new CV joints should not be damaging the diff as they were designed to have the same interface.

Note I have a set of the anti-hop axles (brand new) with stock CVs already built for sale in the classifieds.

All of the Anti-Hop axles actually should help save the diff by greatly reducing the wheelhop that you see (which is one of the main contributors to damaged diffs.
