Not Ranked
Haha....thanks, Chas.
Well....no, I wasn't exactly easing out on my launches....I would be somewhere north of 2500. There was another CSX4XXX owner with a NOS 427 there that had the same thing happen to him...also on BB's as your friend has used. So, at the end of the day, there were around three out of the 6 or so of us there with Cobras that had some sort of clutch or diff issue. I know for a fact that I was getting a degree of wheel hop, and my thought is that the breaking and re-establishing of traction is what did the stub-axle in. I'm likely not going through the trouble of getting a material analysis done on the shaft...I guess I could get a material hardness measurement but not sure what I would compare it to unless I was able to come upon a stub-axle drawing with some sort of hardness specification on it. I guess I'm just not that curious..lol....just looking to get the thing back on the ground and under it's own power.
