Too bad that does not help the shaft that goes into the transmission.

yeah 4340 chromoly and then they do some process putting it in a vacuum to make it stronger and add something to it something like scandium? not sure, did not quite understand when he explained it to me but these things are not breaking. For some reason they do he will make me new ones.

no i have a torsen...i went to the track and of the line i sheared of the splines inside the diff. Luckily there is a "peephole" in the middle that i could use a small punch to knock it out with!

why do you ask if it was a stock diff?

The draw for the lower stage axles comes from the increased torsional twist of the new center sections, not increased strength of the whole piece. That increase in twist is supposed to soften the blow to the trans end pieces... obviously, it's not soft enough for some people's power, traction, or wheel hop levels... GREG! LOL!

The $1700 axles sound like they will find the next weakest link in the system, which would probably be the custom hubs (Buckshot blew two custom hubs, not sure which stage they were though), or the diff gears that plagued Mumm Bros.'s Cougar... Money money money...
