He removes the transmission from the truck... disassembles the transmission and replaces the input/output shaft. Not much too it?

2 of my freinds broke there output shafts with in 3-4 weeks of putting dual fulers on ( like Mike said 750 + ) . but My freind Matt Moon has been on stock shafts for 3 years of pulling and drag racing , It must be some are weaker than others . Next time my trans comes out it will be getting shafts .

I upgraded mine when I broke an input. But that was stock turbo, PPE tune, 12.99et. power level.

I think it broke on the 2-3 shift. Bad luck I guess.

Ya I'm worried about when they catch Ben.



When it comes to the trans i let Mike worry about what i need

Simon: Mike do i need this?:confused:

Mike: how much HP, and what do you want to do?

Simon: Mike around 7-800 its for Abby

Mike: pick it up around 4:00, ill take care of everything;)

:truestory:

Mike is one of the most straightest shooters ive ever met! Rare breed nowadays! IMO I love that guy in a non gay way:D And its just one less worry about. So much new shit all time,I cant keep up.

I have heard of alot more output shafts breaking than input shafts . M

I have heard the same, but I have also heard inputs cause more carnage when they go. Upgrade the output and make the input the weak link could be counterproductive and more expensive in the end.

Mike or others, what are your thoughts?

Shafts breaking in an Allison will not cause damage like a Dodge. There will be no damage in an Alli ( either shaft broken ). With a Dodge; broken front shaft will cause 3K damage including your converter.
