dont do it unless your prepared for the cost.... they will break!!!

never really thought about that, but it ****ed up hardcore aparently
i think there was a few other major things that broke wen the axels broke as well, but he ended up having to find a whole new diff, hubs etc not just replace the axles and centre. it was well fu cked lol
