Yeah I run 235s and when I have full traction on wide open throttle the drivetrain is under more load than when it finally breaks free and the ass walks. Mind you the LSD effect of the diff during a burnout or just wheelspinning up the street does come at a cost. In order for that to occur the cones do get a workout. But **** it right. I didn't mod my VLT to nancy pants around. I paid that cash for the smoke, the stinking brakes, the sideways action, the cooking clutch smell from short shifting line locks etc. If it breaks replace it cause it wasn't tough enough. My 2 cents
