Mine spit a pinion tooth (4.10's and M6, bolt-ons only) without ever having a sticky tire on it.
Now I've got some spare parts : Moser axles, a TA girdle, and a posi because I threw a whole nother rear underneath. Unfortunately...it's still just a 7.5"

LOL.....well don't let it worry you too much. I keep hearing that 4.10's and lower are much more prone to breaking....plus mine had bad gear whine when I bought it at 80K miles up until it broke at 87K miles. Something about crushing crush sleeves causing pinion seals to leak and causing your backlash & gear pattern to get outta whack I'm sure. I've always heard that you can get a solid pinion spacer instead of a "crush" sleeve and that will add alot of strength to these, but I'd imagine it makes setting up pinion depth a pain in the behind.

Well, my gears not only whine LOUD but the backend vibrates really bad over 140 kph (like 90 mph-ish). Now, I'm almost positive my stock driveshaft has something to do with it also. The whine is really loud though on the freeway... as soon as I let go of the throttle its quiet, then the minute I apply gas even just to maintain speed, WOOOOOOOWOWOWOOOOOOO!!!!!
I fully intend to ruin this 10 bolt "someday" and be proud of it. I'd just hate to visit the track for the very first time and not even get a pass out of her. I've got a 3500 converter BTW. Am hoping with good DR's to raise the front wheels off the ground.
either way that first attempt will all be videotaped for everyone's enjoyment ha.

i know a guy that's run a **** ton of low 1.5's on the stock rear with (i think richmond?) 3.73 gears
he lifts his front drivers side wheel off the ground a couple inches. last time out he hit an 11.4. usually runs consistant 11.5's
i'm sure there's at least 50-75 passes, probably more on it
