Oh noooo 40sp are overkill and everyone should use stock 1550 ford shafts
Good break
Maybe if it wasn't made of that 300m glass it wouldn't have shattered like that.

40 spline and 1550 time then?Tossed a long side inner Saturday. Didn't even hear it break. I really don't want to loose my 50* steering but I'm real sick of breaking shafts. This one trashed some CTM caps and the outer is roached as well.

or reduce steering angle, and if so how much?
limit the front to turn 37-40* but add rear steer to also get 37-40* out backDoubtful, R+P will be the weak link then. Gonna talk to Branik and see what they say. I split the inner yoke like that on every one. Kinda feel this shouldn't be a issue with a 4cylinder.
My inner turns 47 and out 45. Honestly reducing steering angle has it's own issues as well.

wow 4 cyl.... are just getting crazy bound up. so to run CTMs do you have to grind out the shaft yoke to make the clearance for 50 degrees steering?
Toyota case? Just curious how it's holding up after breaking 300M shafts. I'm going to be running 1480 Yukons and 4340s with a dual 23 spline Marlin with 4.7s in the rear case.....but wondering if I should be looking at a beefed D300.Eew, why would I do that? So I break shafts on both ends? I have zero interest in a rear steer car and certainly none in adding it to this one.
I'm actually pretty good about not binding it up especially not turned sharp. Rarely do I use my doubler, it's more so I have stock low and 4.7 low. My shafts are machined to turn further. The joint really doesn't matter. I ran Spicers with shafts like this before they still need to be machined so the yoke clears.

I'm running a 21 spline 2.28 box to a 5.0 Atlas in my 1st buggy with the 22re and W56 with 40" stickies and 5.86s. Broke a couple D60 4340 shafts....no issues either. This next build is 23 spline but Toy cases and D60/14B with 40" regular tires and 5.38s. I doubt it will see that much abuse since it's a full bodied 4Runner.Yup, old dual Toyota gear driven. 4.7 gears from Inch worm, TG adapter, FROR twin stick, Bobby treated a rear output for me and all 21spline. It's had a long hard life but holding so far. I've never run 300m stuff. I've broken a ton of stuff over the years though with that setup. I run 40" stickies and 5.38s and has been fine.
I always felt the people running stock axle gears were the ones breaking cases.
I kinda feel like I'm at a point where I break an output, I don't really want to spend the money on a chromoly output in its place and I should just go to a beefed up D300 or Atlas. Any idea how much stronger the chromo outputs are than factory? Are we talking 30% or something markedly higher?Stock rear outputs aren't all that strong. That's why they make a few different chromo options.
But yes, lower gears down stream will always help.
