What shafts are you breaking?

I've heard of nothing but trouble with motorsport ones, people snapping hubs, snapping shafts, and the circlip coming out the groove and tearing the end of the shaft off.

Mate ran 305bhp through gte shafts no worries:)

The sleeve creates a stress concentration, which is why they snap at the sleeve, it's a poor way to make driveshafts.
