[QUOTE="RustyC, post: 404087, member: 1997"] Well it seems we are starting to find some more weak points on the buggy. I got very lucky to find the rear factory third (non nodular) was cracked after the Dirt Riot race, before it spit the pinion out on the ground. Ring and pinion, spool and bearings all still in good shape. I picked up a Strange nodular case to fix this. This past weekends ride found the limit of the passenger rear, ghetto fab, welded axle shaft. It did hang in there for a while though, but jut not strong enough to handle landing under throttle in the bigger rocks. It broke about 1/4" from the weld. I'm guessing the heat treating was compromise from the welding. Time to order that chromo axle.
