    Excellent Product

    Fit perfect, excellent quality, I got good customer service that answered all my questions. I do have one complaint but I'm still giving 5 stars because I know they will fix it. Lug nuts are included and bearing caps for the axle ends which is great BUT I received 4 lugs and one bearing cap because the way it was wrapped up. It does get beat up in shipping and even though you zipped tied the lugs together on each side(important to note). The zip tie broke on one side leaving 4 and was gone on the other side due to the plastic wrap getting damaged. Thread the lugs all the way on then duct tape or electrical tape, then tape the bearing cap in place where you usually put it and then wrap the plastic. I didn't take pics of mine when I got it because I just didn't think about it.

    Everything I ordered arrived quickly. Nice quality product, I was concerned not having ordered from this company previously. My son and boyfriend easily installed axle in less than an hour. I would absolutely order from this company again.
