Thanks, I just blew my driver side axle on my AP1.

Threw on new wheels and springs, long story short...vibration....one good launch....pop!

I'll just find some used AP2 axles as a cheaper solution than going with the driveshaft shop axles.

AP1 and AP2 axles are the same.

Either will fit in either car.

Yup...the part numbers are the same for AP1 and AP2.

Another myth busted.

The 10mm is on the diff flange where it bolts to the axles.

Did you bother to read the thread or just the title?

They are the same part numbers, I.E. The same size!
