somtimes over time the metal fatigues and they just snap, but thats only the case for the outer cv's usually, if your breaking the actual shaft and not the joint then your just overpowering them

Re: snapping axles
 

the shafts are not broken, the joints that goes into the hubs are.
I am thinking of getting some dss level 2.9 can't afford anything higher. I would love to get some autozone lifetime warranty, but I am out of warranty zone I think. gonna try though.

Too bad the trans breaks before you can truly stress the axles to the point of failure.

:P

Re: snapping axles

Re: snapping axles

back on topic, wtf never heard of axles breaking anytime other then launching

must have done some solid work last year with them.

Re: snapping axles
 

your lucky that just one axle didnt snap, you would have been fucked

Re: snapping axles
 

i was thinkign it would be worse at those speed if just one snapped ???, wouldn't that pretty much jerk you to one side?

Re: snapping axles

Re: snapping axles
 

it was very scary, but I kept control and did not panic , good thing I had 4 lanes to swerve in. I stoped 25m in front of a 300m tunnel.
