Default Phastek installation of DSS 1000HP axles

Here are some pics of the DSS 1000HP rated axles we recently installed.

Just after removing the tires lol


Pic of the stock axle before removing


Pic of the front side after removing the caliper and securing it away


Remove the bolts holding the lower and upper control arms and tie bar and trailing arm. although in the picture the bottom strut bolt is removed it isn't neccessary



Remove the knuckle normally it's best to remove the rear brake cable. In our case, we lowered the car on the rack and supported the knuckle assembly


Remove the stock axle



Difference between the two axles stock and DSS



Install in the reverse order of the above and you get


Rinse, wash, and repeat for the other side and completed project and added peace of mind that you now have axles that can handle the added HP of a forced induction setup or all motor setup
