They're in his album.

So were you experiencing wheel hop when the axle snapped?

Honestly I have never had any wheel hop but I have been trying to find a set of traction bars for it cause I figured it would help with the 24s the extra mass and weight but no wheel hop

Did you have a carrier bearing relocation bracket for the drive shaft with the drop? If not, it may explain some things.

Well guys I'm having a 1350 drive shaft built with all 3 joints serviceable with a serviceable carrier bearing with one ton u joints with a horsepower rating over 1000 horsepower so I won't be breaking another drive shaft ill either be breaking the trans or rearend, the flipkit djm warrantied it and they are sending a new flipkit so now I just got to fab up some traction bars all the driveshaft set me back was $600
