They are not the “same”, but what you want to probably know is that they both fit in either a Redeye or a normal Hellcat.

Got it, thanks. Nope, wanted to know if they were the same because looking for upgraded axles and someone has some from a widebody

They are larger, (absent the part that the differential accepts), stronger, the CV joint itself is substantially different.

My understanding is they are the same length. The difference is the wheel offset for a standard and widebody but not sure that is what you are asking.

All the wide body axles are the demon axles. Even a scat pack wide body use them. Thats where I got my demon redeye axles from. The only thing different is the driveshaft. Car has to be a redeye to get the stronger driveshaft.

call the parts department and have them check the part numbers for a wide body scat pack or hellcat. They will match the above numbers I posted. My red eye axles came out of a wide body scat pack.

I've always thought that but was hammered for thinking that way. I've heard they were the same all way back in 2018 when widebodys first came out.

So, wide body axles from a hellcat are the same as redeye axles. So if I get take offs from a widebody hellcat, they’re the same as a redeye - which would be an upgrade for my 2015 narrow body
