I'm sure he means the half shaft ie the drive shaft .
Has the shaft snapped or has the CV broke ?.
I guess it depends how much torque you put through it rather than the power.
I ment drive shaft I have snapped the short driveshaft it's running standard power
Do you actually know what driveshafts you're running??
Aftermarket? Or mish mash of GM bits?
Am
Unsure
I bought the car as it sits it
Never had the shaft when I
Bought it. I was told it was 300 bhp shafts that was all not sure about hubs etc seen on some
Sites that if u put better shafts in u hav to replace the hubs aswell
The shafts thwt were o the car where bigger diameter so the inner cv was a2, 0 cv and then the shaft thinned out to compensate for the 1-6 outter cv ijuwt got a set of bigger shafts to find this out
