I called CCI about the front driveshaft and they said the driveshaft would not hold up for racing.

This is was Jamie @ CCI told me:

If the shaft you broke is a 1310 series then yes ours will withstand more torque. We have sold a few of these 3r series front driveshafts. Have not broke one yet. We have one in a duramax with over 1000 hp that the guy uses just for a pulling truck. he has been using it now for about 7 years. As far as running at high speed with no vibration he can because he has actually a c.v. at t-case and at pinion. Some of the new lifts you can actually make a c.v. and a single u-joint smooth because you are able to adjust your front pinion angle. With a c.v. at t-case and single u-joint at pinion the single u-joint should run no angle at all. All the angle should be ran at c.v. If You can make this happen the you can use a double single. If not then you need a double double to be smooth.So u have to let me know if you need a driveshaft with 1 or 2 c.v.'s. Let me know of any other questions or concerns. sincerely Jamie

My CCI shaft is still holding up after a few pulls and races. But I cant promise if it would work as good for your setup.

Bringing this thread back from the dead....Dustin is making a custom set of traction bars for me.

In a general consensus, yay or nay....

Would you remove 2" rear blocks for racing?

Also....how are you guys clamping the front end?

the axle wrap bars you are getting will address the issue lift blocks give you so i wouldnt worry about it.
