What year is your car? 2003 / Mid June Build (With the 7/70 Thank God)
How many miles? 29k Today When I noticed the shimmy the ODO had just clicked to 29003.
What suspension mods do you have? The only difference is the full set of "MOPAR" crash bolts in my car so it could be brought into alignment spec's when it had only1200 miles brand new in 2K3. My Camber was out and there was no adjustment for it, silly "Net build" design the dealer claimed.
How many times have they failed? This is the first sign of trouble.. Odd Mileage considering the very first post here is the same. I'll be visiting the dealer SOON. Or I can leave it alone and shake up chocolate milk while I drive to work Hope Im still laughing about this after seeing the dealer or I'm not going to buy the new Challenger when It comes out. I'll buy a Toyota FJ! I swear it. ~ :
Driving style? I dont flog the car, but I'll discribe my "style" as spirited at times. The car is in the garage during bad weather, winter months & when its nice out I'm on my motorcycle. Thats why the mileage is so low on it still.
Ever applied full power with wheels cocked? No
Sorry for all my typing failures - Im a bit tired.
If your axles have failed please post here.

Reason: Another typing screw-up. (go figure)
haven't replaced it yet, don't want dodge to see my nitrous kit, just in case. Out of warranty anyway. Gonna buy the damn axle and replace it myself next week.
Well after a long wait at the dealer today they have ordered a set of axles for my 03. I was at the dealer for 4 1/2 HOURS! But the service manger that helped me was a cute lady & I didnt mind the wait. Next thursday I believe the parts will be there and I wont have to shake up chocolate milk anymore after a day or so in their shop. I also saw the new Caliber when I was at the dealer and I must say I was Impressed with its appearance in person and the WHOPPING 4495LB Sticker on the door of the "Base" model. If anyone can make a brick fly it will be PVO (yeah its old school son). If the SRT model is AWD capable and still goes 0 - 60 under 5.7secs I might just jump into one depending on the actual price. Hope they have good axles in em - Ill let you all know how the axle swap goes next week. Be safe
Well Axles are in and no more shakin' going on. Life is good .

What suspension mods do you have? none How many times have they failed? so far, once
Replaced by Dodge? Yep, with a wait, and a hassle about my driving style
Driving style? Neutral-Semi Agressive... Tracked only a few times, never really cause excessive strain on the axles besides the track (which i launch low at, obviously) ... Never do burnout or anything

What suspension mods do you have? none How many times have they failed? May be starting to go. Got a clunking on the Driver Side most notably when turning left and hitting mild bumps(Regina has a lot of potholes and shitty streets).
Replaced by Dodge? We'll see shortly. I think I'll stop in today or tomorrow and have it checked out.
Driving style? Slightly Aggressive, 15 runs down the 1320'.
Reading this is kinda scary. Must get some motor mounts I am starting to think. Kinda want to get solid mounts. Inserts or Mounts? what would be better?
