Brian at Hasport has talked about how many aftermarket axles aren't identical in length to OEM... which might or might not matter in a swap car. Some of the worst offenders can actually pop out at extreme steering angles.

Not all bearings are created equal. I imagine smaller, lower HP-rated axles will likely be on average lighter and have lower frictional losses.
