There on the newer ones so I thought they might be, that's what I want for the front end on my 4x4 They definately are, my pony had 1 rear end, running stock grease, ranch king had 3 w/ the short/ long axle setup.. And the pony had more abuse. I used to break by slamming it into reverse lol | |

| Dual Carb-a-Tooties! That's epic man. That warrants some sweet looking paper filters or maybe a couple giant velocity stacks. | |

No, thats what happens when your frame is cracked and all the pressure is on the axle, the tractor has been through 16 roll overs, pulled many mowers out of the woods (remember, its all up hill on the way out where we romp..) People crack those axles in half so much. usually with stock turf tires, unlocked.
Heres just one picture off hand of a buddies axle on fb.
I've broke my dad's MTD transaxle four times, turfs, unlocked, good grease, mowing the lawn. I wheighed 150 lbs. I don't think that had anything to do with it. | |

| I thought a truss would be cool, just welded to the case via tig or mig. Sounds like a good idea tho. I have a 820 for my offroader, so I can get new meaty tires, and not have to worry about breakage.
