went to the track today hoping to run a mid 14 without nos and break into the 13's with the nos. got to the staging light, and revved up. popped the clutch, and SNAP!!!!. axle broke. i have never heard of anyone snapping an axle with the amount of hp i have. i always thought it took over 300 hp to snap one like the pro racers do. anyways, the 2 inch part with the thread is stuck inside the tranny end. any ideas on how to get it out?? i thought maybe taking out both axled and using a small wooden dow and hammer the broken piece out form the other end might work. any ideas???? and the axle snapped clean off, i couldnt FUC_ING believe it. it was my first run too. Sucked major ***. anyways cost me 50 bucs to tow home and look like an *** pusing it down the side track. hehe let me know what oyu guys think. i need some help

 

Wheel hop = broken axles.

Now the fun part.........
You won't be able to use a wooden dowel to remove the broken spline end as the cross shaft will get in the way. IF you are lucky, a thin screwdriver MIGHT get past the shaft so you can tap out the broken piece.

BTW what motor/tranny/chassis are you running?

 

Mista Bone-If his transmission is LSD equipped,am I correct in assuming it won't have that cross shaft?Thanks.

 

it is a 95 jdm hss in a 4th gen accord. it has a stock jdm lsd so there is no cross shaft. im hoping my dow i dea will wokr. wish me luck.
