How are the new IRS axles holding up? Most of the vendors are now selling them in place of OEM rebuilts. I have broken one in 5k miles and was now thinking about the 930s, but its big$$ as I could keep 2 spare new axles in the van for 1/2 the price.

  You might be right about the return on investment. I went with the
930's not because of any failures on my van, but because I've seen
and heard of axles snapping in half. I guess I bought insurance as
much as anything because I tend to break the rules about proceeding
into remote places by myself.

Former list member and all around nice guy ( Tim are you there ?)
snapped two "new" replacement axles in his 2.5 subaru powered sycnro
westfalia and not even while offroading

Would the vendor who supplied those like to comment ?
