Hello, does anyone happen to know WHY MY AXLES keep breaking? I've broken 4 now at the shaft coming out the right rear differential.. I've replaced the differential mounts and all control arms in the rear end plus the center support bearing. Each of the 4 has lasted about 1000 miles then they break out of nowhere! Any help or suggestions as re appreciated

Mods? Lowered? Wide or Narrow Body?

Wheel hop? Tires?

You have a diff brace and a rear cradle lock out kit?
Right?
I mean you have the simple bare minimum basics, right?

 

[FIREMAN434]

Yea just the bare minimum no diff brace or cradle lock out

Always the same axle? Something sounds misaligned and maybe from the “slightly lowered”. Did it break before the lowering?

No, it was always the same lowered height. Broke both my oem axles that were old, and then ever since all the trakmotive passenger side ones been breaking at the inboard housing

So after the the OG axles broke, the same side (passenger) keeps breaking. Someone smarter than me may have RE axle part numbers, but with those tires and minimal mods, unless the track you are racing on has crazy prep, something isn’t aligned in the rear. Without a lock-out kit, maybe it’s tweaked?

A Diff Brace is the part call the "Peace of mind" one that should be installed.

Dodge - Challenger - SRT Hellcat, Demon, Redeye, Widebody & Super Stock - Safety Equipment - High Horse Performance, Inc.

The other question is if you Axel is stock or what aftermarket brand are you using?

Probably tweaked, cause when I broke em the first time it was all kinds of wheel hop and thats when I found my right side differential bushing busted. Didn't didn't find that til 2 passenger side breaks after that and then replaced all the bushings except the carrier bushings and then the 4th passenger rear break again.

I’ve never installed the lockout kit but have read many threads on here and the response was very positive. Maybe do a search and see if it works for you. There are also a few threads on lowering and the impact to the life of axle boots.
Good luck and let us know what you find.

What lowered height is that?

Got a measurement from ground to fender or a pic or pics of even one of the half dozen or more “broken” axles?

 

[16GoManGoHC]

I think you need better axles like GForce Outlaws or Drive Shaft Shop Stage 5’s.
