I'd say the reason varies depending on the person. Some may be unhappy at home and feel the need to look elsewhere, while others do it just for the thrill of cheating and being able to try something "new". I'm sure self esteem plays a factor in some cases, but I can't see it being the only reason. It's just a convenient excuse.

That makes sense. Very interesting!! It should be a case on unsolved mysteries. No one will ever know the true reason why?!?!

Who would be interested in a set of axles stronger than the stock Diff for less
As you know we here at DSS are always looking to better the drivetrain products we sell, recently we came the conclusion that making a set of 1400Hp axles for the stock diff that has issues after the 600 to 700Hp range might be a little over kill. What were considering doing is making a set of direct bolt in axles for the cars but with a few changes to not only make it less expensive but better suited for a daily driver that See's track time on the weekends.

Starting with the outer CV we will be going back to a 108mm bolt on style but have re-engineered it to clear the bolts and boot on the upper control arm. The CV's will have a 4130 Chromoly cage and special made harder inner Races to ensure great life of the joint. We will be using our high grade grease to top the build. We also have our powder-coating system up and running so the entire set will coated and look like new for years to come.

This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 1024x768 and weights 52KB.

Now where this will be different and help the fast street car is in the fact that if were limited by the Hp of the diff we can bring back the Anti-
wheel hop design but we will be using the 300 material bars we have been using on the 1400hp axle.this is the same material we have been getting from the mill in Sweden (not to be mistaken with 4340), But this would be a 28 spline version capable of an easy 1000Hp.


Now material and other cost have gone up this year and as much as we would hate to increase prices the cost of the 1400hp axles will be going up 100.00 after the 1st of the year but the good news is that this new 1000HP axle set will be coming out at a list price between 1149.99 and 1199.99 depending demand. I'm putting this pole up to see if the community is interested in having us make a set of axles that is not only less expensive but also better suited for the cars with Stock Differentials.


This is the "test" set we made and mocked up on our cradle on the testing bench.
