Why has no one started making any shaft to fit a 60 larger than 1.5 35 or 40 spline? You have diff makers changing bore sizes around and changing bearings to fit in the same housing id. I looked at my 60 powerlok and there sure looks to be enough meat for a larger axle? any thoughts or ideas? could you imagine a 2" d60 shaft? I could!

I agree. Then you will just start wasting r And p's. if you want stronger than 35 splines, go to a bigger housing.
Pretty much sums it up. There's really not that many people wasting the high dollar 35 spline shafts as it is. Is there?

Like already stated the r&P will suffer. Since the axle will transfer so much more of the load to the R&P rather than cushon it. A good 35 spline axle seems to be a good match with the ring gear size of a 60 so if you want to go bigger then you need to go bigger IMO.
