Broke 2 axles
I went to the track yesterday and on my second run I broke both axles right on the launch. As soon as I dumped the clutch I broke both sides right at the splindes, the car didn't even move an inch. I'm having crazy axle problems has anyone else had this happen before? This is the first time I have broke an axle there I normally do it at the inner boot.

Re: Broke 2 axles (hybrid901)
are you using the right axles, yours might be to short with your engine swap and splines are not fully seated in diff? just a thought as it is hard to break both unless you have a drag spool.

Re: Broke 2 axles (rtype11)
Both axles were factory rebuilds so maybe they arn't as strong. I think I have a bad wheel bearing that I'm gonna change do you think that would cause any of my problems? I measured both axles before I installed before I installed them this time and they were right on according to the drive shaft shop.
