Losing an axle at 120 sounds scary. Gotta assumed there was some sort of manufacturing flaw with that axle?

Nice pass. Thing is moving.

When gear were you in when it broke? Seems common for 10r80 cars to break axles on the 1-2 and sometimes 2-3.

Why in the wide, wide world of sports are all of these DSS half shafts breaking? I would think a 2000 HP set of axles would be indestructible. As far as I know, those are the highest hp rated axles on the market; aren’t they? It almost seems pointless to replace the factory axles when you read about these HD axles snapping just as easily.

Half shafts were high on my parts list too. I reached out to BlowByRacing regarding the Shaftmasters DS for my 2019 Bullitt and to my surprise, they told me that Shaftmasters no longer builds driveshafts for Mustangs. They went on to suggest a DSS driveshaft. TBH, I’m not only afraid to take a chance on that, I also don‘t care for the design of rear portion of the shaft that bolts to the differential.
