    Posting to confirm that this does, in fact, fit the MS6 passenger side front axle. I was in a pinch and rolled the dice on an autozone replacement after I ripped the boot on the 18 year old original axle lol.

    3 day event this weekend, so I'll post up if anything goes wrong, but they measured the same on the splines and the fit was great. The shaft itself is slightly larger diameter than the stocker.

    Maybe when I'm back near civilization I'll post some comparison pictures.

    Good to know. Axles are one of the hardest parts to source for the MS6 as they age.

    No problems over the weekend, so it seems like a decent option.

    Pics are attached.

    We finished out the season on these without any issues. I'd guess we put a couple hundred runs on them throughout the season between all the drivers and events.

    Blew my right front cv axle boot and am looking as some options. I ordered a CSP axle from rock auto for ~$90. But im not sure if im happy with my decision. Any update on the duralast gold axle? @phate I'm building my speed6 for circuit racing at summit point raceway here in WV/VA.

    Still in the car, but not racing this year due to life. No complaints.
