I'd rather snap an axle than blow a trans.

some people just like to boast that they have spent so much money on the car. I agree, I would rather snap an axle that break a trans.

Its the brand name of the axles you can find them on mnay websites just type it in on google. I do have a question though a couple of you said you rather break and axle then a tranny what does that mean? Sorry for the sort of thread jack just a quick question

Money wise, they rather break a $100 part rather than what can be an $800 transmission

my guess is that they can withstand the power and thus makes your tranny the weak link in your drivetrain... and the weak link in any setup is normally the first to break.
