I've a friend who's been running 7.5-7.7 in the 1/8th off OBX diff and stock axles for 3-4 years now.
Learn to preload, D-series axles aren't quite as beefy as B-series. Also, is this a different chassis? You might have a suspension/wheelhop problem.

Its the same chasi, have traction bars, and i fiilled all the mounts with window weld, and kept both the little suportive mounts. there is less wheel hop in this than i had with my race mounts on the LS..
