Hi Guys

As some of you might know I am looking for a way to order a new or used rear axel from the states.

I have stumbled over "Quick performance"

Does anyone know anything about this company or their reputation, He´s got a really good rate pn ebay as "staticz2229"

Welcome to Quick Performance Inc. Custom Rear Ends & Diff Parts

And he offered me this deal:

$680 - 9" Housing/Axle Package (Bare - Custom)
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>- 61" Wheel Mounting Surface to Wheel Mounting Surface
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>- New Axles, Axle Bearings, Wheel Studs, & Retainers
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>- 31 Spline, Choice of Bolt Pattern, 1/2" Studs
$820 - Center Section (Assembled)
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>- New 31 Spline Trac-Lock Posi (+$125 for a true lok)
- New Motive Performance Gears (Choice of Ratio)
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>- New Timken USA Bearings
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$1500 - TOTAL
$1625 with True Lok

$150 for shipping to east or west coast (my choise)

This would be a complete 31 spline setup with your choice of gear ratio, we can do either a 3.70 or a 3.90 ratio for you. All of our housings are jig-welded with new 3" DOM tubing. We use new axles, not factory re-splines. In the center section we use a new Ford Motorsports Trac-Lock Posi Unit that has a nodular iron case and a billet steel hat, not a Torque-Lock unit (modified open carrier) like others are selling on eBay.

The center section that I priced above will be good for 450-500HP. If you plan on having more than that you will want to go to an aftermarket setup. It would be $1125 instead of $820 for a complete center with the Yukon Nodular Iron Pro N-Case w/ 5/8” Cap Bolts, Aluminum Daytona Pinion Support, 1350 Steel Yoke, Motive Performance Gears, 31 Spline Trac-Lock Posi, & Timken (USA) Bearings. ALL NEW & ASSEMBLED!


I am considering the 1625 option

Thanks everyone

 

I ordered a third member and new shafts from them a couple months ago. I was very happy with the price and quality. Got a 3.5 ratio third member with Tru-Trac and new shafts made by strange. Took about 1 1/2 weeks.


Here is what I got

I was told by the guy who rebuilt my center section that Yukon and Motive gear sets are noisy. OK for 4x4s running in the desert or drag racers but not recommended for the street. Can't confirm or deny, but all their gears are made in you-know-where. He uses Richmond or Ford Racing on street builds.

Do you really need a custom-built axle? No luck getting an axle from your request on here?

 

I have a few guys on here that has a rear for me for a decent price, but I was planing on doing a "shop" refurbishment when it´s still in the states as I (even if I did the work myself) need to buy all the parts seperatly for the refurbishment (and limited slip diff) if I do the work back in Sweden.
However I still havent gotten all the numbers back for the FTE rears but I belive that this price will be hard to beat, and it becomes much easier for both sides i belive. "mailorder rear" and get it shipped to my friends address in San Fransisco.

But I haven´t made up my mind yet still waiting for some numbers for "shop refurbishment"

Thanks for the noise input. Will have that in mind.

 

When I was shopping for my new center I checked with 4 or 5 different places, strange, Currie, Yukon, Quick and local. Most of them used Motive gears (Italian) , said they were good quality and quiet. I have not noticed any noise from the new rear but then already have the noise from the trans.

 

I have done some googling and From what I can figurer out,There are different manufacturing faciliteter for motive gears, and as you state the Italian seems to be Most quiet. I Will talk with the Guy tomorrow
