yeah making the front and rear shafts the same length shouldn't be that hard. end hijack trimble

trimble- have you checked out the frame around the box to see if its cracking at all? it might be strong enough to move those tires but i know its not designed for it so it might be transferring the load to the frame, just a thought. id hate to see your box rip off on a trail or worse on the road.

Ive had my PS pump off 3 times and havent seen any cracks.

I just a got another one that im rebuilding so i can switch it out with the current one thats blown.

like harley said, with the crossover done correctly it is almost effortless to turn the tires.
