so your breaking 35 4340 stubs? 

looks like its another 1740$ from ECGS or Branik for 40 spline stubs and slugs for all 4 corners.   then push the failure to the inner shaft next maybe?

ya the 42 BFGs and now branik joints just dont care. 
currently inner and outer 35 spline 4340 and Branik 1550 solid joints all 4 corners.  right rear stub (short side) lasted 8hrs of humble pie and 1/3 mile of Mammoth. 

it was a full load static break while bound up/heavy crawling. 



at least i still havent blown up the tiny half shafts in the transaxle. 


sticky tires pulled and put in storage in my basement.  i guess trying to follow BFG rules, guy i bought them from said they were always stored in heated garage all winters since he owned them.

pulled broken shaft out today when i swapped tires, it took out the inner unit bearing shaft bearing also. 


i guess its a bearing held in by a c clip.  ill order a few of those.  spare unit bearing put on

I didn’t realize there was another bearing in there. Makes sense for locking hub support of the stub.

Did you price out the direct drive stubs instead of 40sp too? Curious about the price on that.

not yet, ran out of time to drop my tire off to get fixed,  i think ill just wait till spring so it doesnt get left outside or transported in slush.  made an effort to follow BFG rules and brought the stickies inside for the winter.  sitting on a pallet in my basement.
