Rear axel question

[Maddogg22]

I just bought an 2015 Fiesta ST, and love it! One problem is I have a rear axle that needs to be replaced. I can find a standard rear axle pretty easily but the ST is a more difficult. Can anyone tell me what's the difference between the standard Fiesta rear axle and the ST rear axle ?? Is it geometrically different or is it just the bushings? Thanks!

The parts between ST and non ST are different,(not sure what).
Below are the part numbers for your car from Tasca Parts.
I would suggest you call Tasca (ask for Steve Powell 800-598-1484) and give them your VIN# to make sure you will get the correct parts.

The non-ST axel is not as stiff and has slightly different camber (more, I think). There are rally guys on this board that have made the switch.
