thanks man, this will work, I know.
nobody has stepped up to the plate so I guess I am it. It will be fast and furious for sure and I am looking forward to the challenge to bring the hard parts we all need and want.

Looks like the production should start in 6 weeks. I can do the axles then for sure and then move on to the out drives. I might even have the out drives done also. They will start out as a traditional set up but really tough.
To help the R&P hold up I would highly recommend shimming the ring gear toward the pinion as tight as you can with out a bind or drag on the gears
after a while a R&P set will also be available and will be a spool.

What alloy are you making them out of? Seems like anything more then 4340 would be overkill for this application.

yeah I just read it wrong, I changed it after I realized.

All the alloys in that "range" would need to heat treated after machining. The alloy I am using is a HT alloy and after machining will not have to be heat treated to maintain strength beyond what we actually need.
Like I said, I want an axle that is "nearly" unbreakable. So you will have to watch it with these so you don't rip your truck apart. The other parts will be available as time allows for manufacturing and development of items are overcome.
