It can't be half as bad as a square shaft

I still don't love 0.375" wall.... But overkill is the best kind of kill, right?

Only problem with beefing up the shaft that I see is that it moves your weak point somewhere else. Def will hold up better to being ground against rocks and whatnot though!

rather have a weak point and know what it is than live and wonder how weak a vehicle I am driving
I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

no way a 14 bolt pinion is caring, you might round off the yoke ears on rocks but not much else.  Never herd of a 205 failing in any way so im not worried.


i got 400lbs or so of steel, got some pieces of tube for driveshaft, but not sure ill use them, not a nice fit, a little loose.

I think these are going to stay with this axle for now, probably building a second housing...
