Default axles
gsharapa,

What size axle are you running 28 or 31spline with your stroker?

My last Cobra now owned by Bevan Wright (CC) he removed the spool and replaced it with a LSD on the 9" Ford custom built IRS, when I raced it I had to fit new 1-1/8" Jaguar outer short hub axles every second race meeting as it twisted them. Having said all that the spool probably contributed to the problem and BB injected Chev 454 made serious 600+ horsepower, mind you it never hooked up that good on the 17" radials wheelspun at 120mph plus!
