What does a Stage 2 DSS axle do?

Not twist as easily as a stock axle.

Though I have not heard anyone twist a stock axle so...


The main reason is that traction even with drag radials is limited and not near enough to twist an axle.


Now a turbo'd car with drag slicks could do it if anyone could.

I really don't see anything else making the torque required to do it. Well maybe a high rpm launch with a 3L, upgraded clutch & PP, and drag slicks??? Maybe...


The other bonus to the DSS Stage 1, Stage 2 or GCK HD axle is a heavy duty CV joint.

I have a CRAZY feeling that he is asking because WVRDVRs car on Ebay has them listed. Of course he is pushing some boost and has a nice car, hate to see it go.

I've too doubt the need for upgraded axles because I have never heard of anybody busting an axle. When I do go with drag radials I have no problem torture testing the stock axles.
