The first axle I shipped to a mfg to make me some stronger units. The second one I chucked in the trash.

Seems like you're packing a bottle - just too much of a jolt on the half shafts.

Pehaps a Quaife LSD might help . . .

Well, not just any bottle, but a 150 shot.

Both cases 150 shot and other mods...and, drag radials. I can tell you first hand that a 100 shot is very violent (and fun and fast as hell). Add another 50 HP and other mods, and DR's, yeah, I guess things could break.

I'd say that is a pretty amazing thing that there aren't others braking with so many mods going on now....and so many cars out there.

Another thing I noticed, the last guy has his car lowered. I wonder if that helped the break to happen along with the mods.

But a 150 shot with DR's? Forget it.

Yikes, well nice to know that DRs and a 150 shot seems to be the lethal combo. Guess I'll stay away from slicks and keep mine at 100.
