All my axle boots are green.. Factory axles?

[7angofragger]

I was checking out under my car, and i noticed that all of my axle boots are bright green... do the factory axles have a green boot? or are these aftermarket? any way to tell?

Reconditioned axles that have been sent out and repaired usally when in an accident or broken are green.

My DSS stage 3 axles have green boots.

I've had 4 sets of axles now. All seemed to have different color boots on them.

1. on car from factory : black I had the weak 03 axles on my 04
2. replaced by dealer @ 35,000 miles : blue boot (had mopar part # label on it.. took almost 2 weeks to get them) one was throwing grease right away and dealer broke control bushings installing axles. had about 1500 miles on them when replaced. Axles on Nat back order at this time. was lucky to get the first set..
3. replaced by dealer : green (took 3 weeks to get them)
4. replaced by dealer : black (had mopar part # label) green boots lasted about 25k. Started to get a wobble like original factory axles did.

Dealer covered rental each time even with my car having a $175 limit on rental coverage

I bought DSS replacements before and they all have been green.

We posted photos in our blog comparing the DSS axles to the factory axles for the 95-99 Dodge Neon.

Take a look at our blog post and then look at your axles to see if they are painted gray on the shafts like the DSS ones pictured in our blog. That will help you identify if they are the DSS aftermarket axles.

I may decide to do a SRT4 stock axle versus DSS axle today to post in our blog....

UPDATE:
For kicks, we took photos showing the difference between the factory SRT4 axles and the DSS axles for the SRT4.

We've posted the photos in our blog here:
