The warranty lasts as long as the original purchaser owns the vehicle in which the spool is originally installed.

Warrantied against manufacturing defects and axle breakage for five years. This warranty is not transferable to another party. “No Questions Asked” replacement for first warranty return, however, USA Standard Gear reserves the right to either replace axle or refund the original purchase price after the first warranty claim. USA Standard Gear (through RANDYS Worldwide Automotive) makes final determination on warranty considerations.
