Re: Tom's Axles Q's...

Tom:

I think your mixing up all sorts of suspension parts with what you really
need: TRUSSES.

If you're going to go airborne and you want your diffs to hold up, they'll
have to be trussed. Otherwise, a single jump and hard landing can bend the
housing and break an axle, no problem

Anyone ever see the writeups they did on the old Dodge Truck commercials
where the truck dropped into the picture from about 12 feet up? It took a
few trucks to make that commercial and none of them was mobile after that
drop.
