    Nothing a quick pressure wash and a couple of cans of paint from Bunnings wouldn't fix...

    Yeah, this crossed my mind... We have some 40mm o/d tube at work that was bought in for a specific job.. It has a wall thickness of 10mm!!! As Nick (Nrs91) said tho with his experience I'll wreck the joints before I snap the shaft, so Im tempted to see how it goes. The greatest torque will be in 1st and 2nd low... With this in mind, I won't be giving it the beans when in these gears. When at 110kph pulling out to overtake a B Double, the power will be there but it'll be nowhere near what it would be accelerating hard in 2nd or 3rd!

    To be honest your more likely to bust a halfshaft or cv there should be minimal shock loadings in the lowest gears if anything will make ot fail it will be 3rd 4th or 5th low when you find the ground again lol

    keep up the good work!

    In the front?
    I have a solid front shaft in my rrc, originally from a discovery that had cat converters. I haven't seen the setup myself but the us guys keep talking about it.

    That is VERY expensive. You'd get a whole 6BT powered dodge for a fraction of that.
