Just FYI, Z is one of the guys running DSS’s new design axle, that looks just like the original hellcat axles but made of better material. So far he hasn’t broke one yet either and he’s putting down a good amount of steam.

If they don't break for him then I should be good.

You have the new design DSS axles?

 

[DavidKFla]

You have the new design DSS axles?

No. Axles might be on my list.

 

[16GoManGoHC2]

Well, no one will buy their products anymore as a result I guess.

Unless they read it here first Only after they made their purchase, had a failure, called for warranty support only to find out sorry Charlie that lifetime warranty stuff is old news incorrect internet stuff, you really believe everything you read on the internet? Should have checked with us direct first. Then maybe they won’t buy their product again after it’s too late and they long saved up for axle money is now junk.

I'm running the new DSS as well, they have been holding some serious abuse. Next time out we are shooting for a 1.2 60ft.

@fumanchu182 did you confirm it was the diff?

I’m still using the old style axle.

Did you attend TX2K? I watched a little of it and didn't see you.

Will know more tonight, don't want to crack open the pumpkin cause of the way these pieces of shit are built but when I made that right turn I got the 'nam flashbacks to 2021 when it did that.

Hmmmm, Plum Crazy Jim told me you were. I only know 2 guys using them (the new style bolt less DSS) and so far no trouble with them.

@16GoManGoHC2 got under the car today. None of the diff shell is broken. Axles where given the shake test by hand, seem fine. Trying to find a Demon diff. The regular 3.09 aint it.

checked the cv on the diff too full send till she goes

Man that spindly little shaft on that CV style DS is scary looking. You need one that looks like this, DS breakage is not even a concern of mine, the Wiles is like a Battleship compared to it.
Yea, find a Redeye 3.09 Diff is what you need

 

[fumanchu182]

No driveshaft hoop @16GoManGoHC2 ? you play a dangerous game.

I think the diff I just blew up was a Demon on last 4 are 99aa I think.

I have one, it’s still in the box, weighs 30+ lbs lol. I have faith in the Wiles DS, it really is built like a battleship, looks like it can take 5000 hp when sat next to a DSS CV type. Here it is compared to the stock CV type DS. But I do think about putting the hoop on, often.

There are lighter loops out there

Please post links, as I’d have no issue buying a different one but getting one around the big Wiles ends it tough, they are over 4” OD, the one I have will clear it but interested in lighter for sure.

 

[fumanchu182]

my s&m is no where near 30lbs but if you're worried about 30lbs then I think you're priorities are wrong when that wiles sends your cat pole vaulting or becomes a buzz saw

Gforce makes one similar to the s&m that fuman has. Hhp sells them. I really like the one that came on @jonx96 car and I have searched and no luck finding it

A GForce one is what I have, it’s a pretty big clunkie thing. Next time under the car I’ll see how it fits

Being I don't have one it looks like it weighs 10-15 lbs. The BMR I would guess a lot more
