Axle snap? Maybe you should have given your clutch a break-in period.

well basically it it glazed over the flywheel so now i have to rip it all back out and get the flywheel recut and check the clutch and pressure plate to see if its ok 2 and buy a new axle. no i didnt break teh axle from launching or anythign i think that when i lowered my car it didnt help and plus they were stock with 100k on the so i think they just let go it didnt snap

try yanking the parking brake and slipping the clutch for a while..might clean the flywheel up
