Review on Cardone Select 66 4071 Axle Drive by Joseph Flamm

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good: Low price

Good: Low price, fits, looks and feels of acceptable quality. Bad: Constant vibration when accelerating between 20-30 mph. After three of these I gave up and bought from RAxles instead. The problem is completely solved. My only guess is that the Cardone axle uses an imperfectly manufactured internal CV joint. Well, for an old racquet, that level of performance can be quite acceptable. The Cardone dial axle was vastly superior to the Autozone Reman axles (which I believe were remanufactured by Cardone) and the locally rebuilt axle. I went through eight (8!) restored bridges between the Cardone repair center and the local mechanic and they all vibrated like crazy. The vibration was so severe that the paneling in the car rattled every time between 20 and 30 miles per hour. I can't imagine this being acceptable even for a racquet. In my opinion, the additional price of a Raxle is absolutely worth it, as long as you don't shrink.
