Thanks for sharing!

Sorry to hear about the 32 messing up yet again. Hopefully this will be the last time.

HAHAHAHAHA

That's the Weld version of Twittering - or Tweeting - or Being a pimply faced teen on Facey book...

Yeah --- Jeff assures me that they've discovered the fix for this "issue" of these little pieces breaking. Obviously a weak link! The dumb little hot rod can't weigh more than about 1800 or 2000 pounds -- so spinning the tires shouldn't be putting much pressure on "anything"!

I've owned many Corvettes and never ever broke a rear end! And this isn't the rear end - it's just the stub axle or whatever it's called. Not the half shafts. I'd had those made extra beefy already!

Not impressed, those stub shafts wouldn't live in a Toyota Tercel and I mean that. I'd look really close at the rest of the parts and make sure it's not the only mis engineered part.

Oh - rest assured "we" have had a little heart to heart conversation about this being the second time this has happened -- and that's AFTER they swore up and down that it "had never happened before"....

I'll reserve judgement until I have the new pieces in hand. We're not going to chrome 'em until after I TRY to break 'em.

The Kugel boys are pretty sharp guys... so I have to give them the benefit of the doubt. So far - TWO STRIKES.
