The pinion yoke the drive shaft the main shaft of the trans all had to get replaced
Alston going in soon. This one will be for sale........

Sorry to hijack this thread.
For the torque arms that snapped, were they the transmission-mounted torque arms or where they the crossmember-mounted torque arms? Thanks in advance for the info.

Anyone know what would cause the stress at this point of the TA? I had spohn send me another one and after 3 passes cutting only 1.5 60's I see 3 cracks where this one broke. I run the pinion set at -3. Rest of the suspension is Sphon LCA's, Sway bar, BMR panhard, QA1 shocks, BMR LCA location brackets, Denny's DS. I launch at about 5K on 28" ET Streets.
Is it the TA? or do could I have something setup causing a bind here?

Where the TA's that borke made of Chromoly or mild steel. This is the exact arm that I am looking at for my 12 bolt but am now kind of worried. Any further input would be nice. Thanks.
