    Replacement axle

    Does any one know what axles are compatible with the 2003 Marauders? Not the axle shafts, the whole axle? I had a bearing fail, and wallowed out the axle tube.

    1.) 2003 Marauder axles will swap right in.
    2.) 2004 Marauder axles will swap right in.

    Yep. The whole axle.

    Will a rear axle from a 2002 PI bolt up "unmodified"? I know the gear ratio is different.

    any panther chassis axle from 03 to 10 should fit, if its 05 or later it should have 31 spline axles which is a plus!

    NO, shocks are mounted inboard, 03' and up are outboard. It may be OK if you want to run larger rear tires. But you will have to fab up some shock mounts.

    03' and up rear ends are what your looking for. Like the one I threw away a couple of weeks ago.

    Hmmm. I found a 2007 CVPI at a salvage yard, but the guy at the yard claims it will not fit. He may not know what a Marauder is. Any reason you can think of that he would be correct?

    He probably doesn't know what a Marauder is.

    I wish I had it at the yard. I am 2 hours away, and my car is on a rack waiting on a transplant.

    Found one and got it ordered. Came off of a 2006 CVPI if I remember right.
