Has anyone broken or had a friend that has broken there tail shaft off the trans during a hard launch. I have heard of a lot of people bending the factory bracket that retains the arm to the trans but not the tail shaft itself.

if ur worried bout braking the tail shaft umi sells a relocation bracket the moves the mounting position to the trans mount rather then the tranny it self. . but i also heard that most cars dont need it till there makin big power
