Anyone running the polyperformance shafts?

I've got the poly shafts in mine. No problems in two wheeling seasons and a few comps. They were in it when I bought it from Tim Florian so I am not sure how long they had been in before I got it. So far so good though.

I think I might be running Poly's. D-Toy could probably tell you for sure. What ever they are, they hold up well. Other then the housings, they are the only things south of the driveshafts that I haven't been able to break yet.

I think they were from Poly.
Poly had a great deal on narrow axles a little while ago.

Ifs

Hmmm wonder if that makes a difference as mine are the short shafts?


I did buy a couple sets of the short Polys now that I think about it and never had a problem with those either.

We should have a new turning contest to see if all you guys running narrow diffs out turn mine. Curious to see.

I may not out turn you but I have 1.5" more room to work on both sides of the rear of my car and every comp I use that space to my advantage.:D Oh and I have the 40Deg Longs and steering setup properly so i'll probably out turn you too.:laughing:
