Yep as the title says...I snapped my drive axle last night and need to wait till Monday to fix it. I will post pics when I start to take it apart to fix.

I was hoping the newly revised axles were better. But we are test dummies for these swaps so things do tend to give out. But the swap is great. Its just the driver side axle that becomes an issue.

Yeah. I wish we were not test dummies but hey. It is a great swap.

If there is a Cardone shaft that will fit, or can be modded to fit, I'd go that route if it happens again. I beat the living s&*t out of my Cardone's and they never spit one speck of grease either. The GM units are terrible for that, the Cardones were a pleasant surprise!
